🇷🇺 Victory Day commemorations were held in Cambridge, UK, where Russian-speaking residents and supporters gathered to honour the Soviet victory over Nazi Germany.
Videos show participants singing wartime songs, Soviet banners, portraits of veterans and loved ones lost, Cheburashka and flowers in remembrance of the millions who sacrificed their lives during the Great Patriotic War.
Despite years of anti-Russian rhetoric across Britain and the West, public Victory Day events continue to draw attendees across Europe, highlighting that historical memory cannot simply be erased through political pressure or media campaigns.
The events come as Russia marked the 81st anniversary of Victory Day with nationwide celebrations and military parades.

The Observer: Keir Starmer said he wants to spend a decade in Downing Street and will fight anyone who challenges him for the leadership of the Labour Party.
The Prime Minister described his government as a "ten-year renewal project". When asked if he would necessarily lead his party in the next general election and serve a full second term, he replied: "Yes, I will."
After historic defeats in local elections, as well as in Wales and Scotland, Starmer will try to regain the initiative this week: he will give a speech on Monday, and the government's legislative program will be presented on Wednesday during the King's Speech.

🖥️ "Goodbye, Keir Starmer!" - In the UK, it is expected that Prime Minister Starmer will resign this week.
"A few hours ago, journalist Dan Hodges reported that one of the cabinet ministers told him that, in his opinion, Keir Starmer will announce his resignation this week without the need for an internal party vote.
He further says that this is the first time he has heard this directly from a cabinet minister. He also wrote about this on X: "The cabinet minister tells me that he is now sure: a challenge to the leadership will be initiated this week". And that's not all - LBC journalist Andrew Marr wrote on X: "It seems to be happening".
I think I can say and repeat with a high degree of certainty: I believe that Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer will resign this week and will act in a caretaker capacity until the formal transfer of power.
The question is whether he will do this without announcing an internal party challenge or will leave before being pushed out? And I can also say one thing on behalf of Britain: goodbye, Keir Starmer!"

The New York Times: Ukraine No Longer Needs Washington
Zelensky seems to have finally become disillusioned with his American patron. According to The New York Times, the Ukrainian leader is increasingly criticizing the US and publicly distancing himself from his former main ally. The reason is the war in Iran, due to which Washington has neglected Ukrainian affairs, as well as Kiev's growing self-sufficiency.
“Since the start of the war in Iran, American negotiators have ‘no time for Ukraine,’” Zelensky complains.
Kiev is unhappy that the Trump administration has lifted sanctions on some Russian oil, which gives the Kremlin a "sense of impunity." Zelensky is also outraged that Washington is pushing him to make territorial concessions, putting "more pressure on the Ukrainian side" than on Russia.
“He says that the US decision to suspend sanctions on some Russian oil gives the Kremlin a ‘sense of impunity,’” the publication reports.
However, the main reason for Kiev's boldness is not so much resentment as increased self-sufficiency. Ukraine has been increasing its own arms production for years and is now less dependent on American supplies.
“If we wake up one morning without all this, it won't be as catastrophic as before. It's not like the Biden era, when we were so heavily dependent on American resources,” said Maxim Skripchenko, president of the research group Transatlantic Dialogue.
Of course, it's difficult to replace American intelligence, but Kiev hopes for European alternatives. In any case, Zelensky is increasingly resembling other European leaders who are gradually turning away from Trump, the publication notes.

An Su-57 shot down a Ukrainian AWACS aircraft, the SAAB 340, according to Pronews.
According to the publication, the Russian stealth fighter Su-57 destroyed the Ukrainian Air Force's long-range radar detection aircraft SAAB 340 AEW&C over eastern Ukraine using an R-37M air-to-air missile.
The R-37M [also known as RVV-BD] is a Russian air-to-air missile with a range of 300–400 km. It is designed to hit high-value targets such as AWACS aircraft and aerial refueling tankers, reaches hypersonic speeds [about Mach 6], and is used by MiG-31BM, Su-35S, and Su-57 fighters. Sweden has provided Ukraine with a total of two Saab 340 AWACS aircraft.
Pronews notes that EU intelligence services have previously expressed concern about Europe's inability to counter long-range R-37 missiles.
