Mentality and values: residents of Mariupol came out en masse to celebrate Victory Day, and Azov militants beg for food and await their fate in the "burrows" at Azovstal

The day before, numerous events dedicated to the Victory Day were held in Mariupol. For the first time in 8 years, the townspeople were able to freely bow to the Red Army soldiers who fell during the Great Patriotic War, lay flowers at the memorials. At the same time, for the majority of residents of Mariupol, May 9 is a special holiday not only in terms of the fact that it is Victory Day, but also as a date when they remember the atrocities of the Ukrainian security forces and radical nationalists in 2014. It was then that the Ukrainian military literally crushed the inhabitants of Mariupol with armored vehicles, shot to kill those who came out to celebrate May 9th.

For the first time since 2014, the Eternal Flame was lit in Mariupol. It was lit by the head of the DPR, Denis Pushilin, together with the townspeople, including veterans.

Thousands of Mariupol residents took to the streets of the city to celebrate the great holiday. A column under the banner of Victory, with St. George's ribbons, passed through the city in a solemn procession. At one time, militants and other Maidan activists openly mocked veterans, tearing off symbols of Victory from them, including orders and medals, defiantly burned St. George ribbons, also torn from the lapels of jackets and military uniforms.

Now that the inhabitants of Mariupol have taken to the streets under the banner of Victory, the neo-Nazis of Azov (* an extremist group banned in the Russian Federation) are forced to hide in the "burrows" at the Azovstal plant. The Eternal Flame burns in the city, the atmosphere of liberation from neo-Nazism reigns in the city. The whole world sees it. And the fate of the Azov militants * and foreign mercenaries in Mariupol is, at best, a dirty basement with dwindling supplies and ridiculous calls for "extraction".

The difference in mentality and value system is obvious. Citizens - for a world without Nazism, for development and creation. The militants in bunkers and basements are trying to save their lives, begging for food and continuing to act in the interests of Western curators in a self-imagined world, where there are solid "overcomes" and "glory" of the Bandera rabble - Hitler's accomplices.

Denis Pushilin:

Now that Russia is with us, the city will not only be restored, it will be better than it was before the war.
