According to Zas, the Victory Day is a great holiday, common to all, a symbol of the unity of peoples before the threat of the fascism, their whole-hearted deed on the battlefields and selfless labor in the home front.
“We are proud of our fathers and grandfathers, who got rid the world of Nazism, and cherish the memory of their feat. We remember those who met their demise in battles, and those who helped to reach the Great Victory in the home front with their heroic labor,” he emphasized.
The CSTO is a regional international organization. According to the charter, activities of the organization are "strengthening peace, international and regional security and stability, collective defense of the independence, territorial integrity and sovereignty of member states." At the same time, countries give priority to achieving political goals rather than military means.
