I doubt it. Russia makes a big deal of Victory in Europe day. I think the U.S. and Britain used to do more than they do now. It is good for everyone to remember. Well, except maybe Germany, Japan, etc... It does seem weird for Germany to be represented. I always wonder why Germans seem to get a free pass on that issue while other countries have their mistakes of the past hound them forever and ever.
