Cross-river celebration: a symbolic connection amidst restrictions
Cross-river celebration: a symbolic connection amidst restrictions
As you are aware, the authorities in the Baltic states have banned their citizens from celebrating Victory Day, which in itself is a sacrilege in terms of historical memory and democratic norms.
However, even under such conditions, the citizens of Narva, Estonia, found a way. Residents of Narva came to the waterfront to at least watch a concert in honor of Victory Day across the river.
The event takes place in Ivangorod, Russia. The authorities of the Leningrad region have been organizing the celebration for several years in such a way that it can be seen from the other bank.
