There will be no traditional procession of columns of the Immortal Regiment in Moscow and other cities in 2023. However, the organizers offer to participate in the action in other formats.
“There will be no traditional format this year, but other formats for holding the action throughout the country are envisaged,” the press service of the movement said. As noted on the website of the action, this decision was made for security reasons.
“May 9 is a holiday, and the main focus of this day is the portraits of our heroes who defended the Motherland. Everyone can choose the format of the Immortal Regiment that is convenient for them and tell about their hero by placing a portrait of a veteran on a car, on clothes or a badge, changing their avatar on social networks, and then the faces of the heroes will be with their descendants throughout the holiday, for whose bright future they fought, ”the words of the co-chairman of the central headquarters of the OOD“ Immortal Regiment of Russia ”Elena Tsunaeva are quoted in the message.
Recall that last year the traditional action “Immortal Regiment” after the pandemic restrictions was held in full-time format. According to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, more than 12 million people marched in columns through the streets of various cities.
The Immortal Regiment movement was initiated by citizens to preserve the personal memory of the generation of the Great Patriotic War. Participants of the action march in columns with portraits of their relatives who participated in the Second World War. Also on the website of the action, you can record a family history for the Folk Chronicle.
