One of the most remarkable public events in my country is the victory day. it is traditionally celebrated on the 9th of may. this patriotic holiday commemorates the victory of the ussr over the nazi germany. every year in honour of this day in all cities across the country lots of cheerful parades and celebrations are held. despite the fact that the holiday is celebrated in a flamboyant way, may 9 is a sad day for the majority of our population. many people have lost their loved ones and close relatives during this ruthless war. from one hand everyone is happy that the country wasn’t occupied by the fascist invaders, from the other hand everyone grieves over their loss. on this day we are grateful to our saviors, to those who sacrificed their lives for us. that’s why we try to celebrate this day with honours. some part of younger generation doesn’t understand the importance of this event, which i think is disrespectful. in my opinion, the victory day is one of the greatest holidays during the year. some of my ancestors also took part in the great patriotic war of 1945, and i’m proud of them. одним из самых знаменательных государственных праздников в моей стране является день победы. его традиционно празднуют 9-го мая. этот патриотический праздник чтит память победы советского союза над нацистской германией. ежегодно, в честь этого дня, во всех городах на территории страны, проводится множество весёлых парадов и празднеств. несмотря на то, что этот праздник празднуется помпезно, 9 мая является грустным днём для большей части нашего населения. многие потеряли своих любимых людей и близких родственников во время этой безжалостной войны. с одной стороны, все счастливы, что страна не была оккупирована фашистскими захватчиками, с другой стороны, все скорбят о своей потере. в этот день, мы своим спасителям, людям, которые пожертвовали свои жизни ради нас. по этой причине, мы стараемся праздновать этот день с почестями. какая-то часть молодого поколения не понимает важности этого события, и я считаю это неуважительным. на мой взгляд, день победы, это один из важнейших праздников в году. некоторые мои предки также участвовали в великой отечественной войне 1945-го года, и я ими горжусь.
