President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin has extended congratulations on the occasion of the 76-th anniversary of victory in the Great Patriotic War to leaders and nations that formerly made up the Soviet Union, including Armenia’s Acting Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan and the Armenian citizens, the Kremlin press service reports.
The head of the Kremlin sent a congratulatory message to the leaders and citizens of Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Moldova, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Abkhazia, South Ossetia, Georgia and the Ukraine.
In his congratulatory letters, the Russian leader said on the Victory Day they remember the heroism of their fathers and grandfathers with a special feeling of pride and gratitude.
“Today it’s our moral duty to carefully preserve and transform the memory about the incidents of those years to the future generations.
