Arrives Soviet Victory Day (Russian in its current version) on Nazism, which is celebrated every May 9 since 1945. he was called great patriotic war. It was a long and costly fight against the Hitler’s invading armies until defeating them in Berlin with the help of the US, which supplied tanks, trucks, planes and ammunition, information later silenced by Stalin. So they had a common enemy: the Nazi Germany. Without the participation and coordination of the two future world powers it would have been difficult to defeat the Third Reich.
After the fight, both began a military and ideological party to dominate the world what was called Cold War. A Putin he would have liked to present himself on Monday with a great victory over a Ukraine supposedly dominated by Nazis and who represent a threat to Russia. The propaganda seeks to connect with the collective memory in defense of a special operation that is turning out to be a disaster.

Ukraine he tries to prevent a possible Russian advance from the south from trapping them. 25% of his strength is concentrated in that area. The annihilation of him would open an opportunity to attack kyiv again.
Everything indicates that the war will be long and exhausting. In the event of a Russian victory, which is unlikely at the moment, we would move to the stage of armed resistance. There will be peaks of intensity and relative calm that will force Europe to overexert itself. Putin knows us well, he trusts our tendency to get tired, as it happened in Syria and it happens in Libya.
