Forwarded from Russian House New Delhi
Dear friends, we are glad to share with you the works of a talanted Indian artist Nishant Kumar Meena. He is the winner of Victory Dictation-2024 held in Delhi in English. As Nishant tells, he draws his works being influenced by the Heroic deeds displayed by the Red Army soldiers during the Great Patriotic War. "Also I am quite fascinated with all the war memorials: Rear-front monument at Magnitogorsk, Kursk Battle memorial, Motherland's Call at Mamayev Kurgan, the Victory Obelisks in all the Hero Cities, and of course the Fortress of Brest", he confessed.

🎙 Address by President of Russia Vladimir Putin at the military parade marking the 79th anniversary of the Victory in the Great Patriotic War of 1941–1945 (May 9, 2024)
💬 Today we are honouring our fathers and grandfathers and grand-grandfathers. They defended their native land and crushed Nazism, liberated the peoples of Europe and displayed unparalleled heroism in combat and on the home front.
<...>
The West would love to forget the lessons of World War II, but we remember that the destiny of humankind was decided during the colossal battles of Moscow, Leningrad, Rzhev, Stalingrad, Kursk, Kharkov, Minsk, Smolensk and Kiev, and in the intense and bloody fighting from Murmansk to the Caucasus and the Crimea.
<...>
But let me emphasise: Russia has never belittled the significance of the Second Front or that of Allied assistance. We honour the valor of all members of the Anti-Hitler Coalition, the Resistance Movement, the underground movement and guerrillas, as well as the courage displayed by the peoples of China fighting for their independence against militarist Japan's aggression.
<...>
Russia is now going through a difficult, watershed moment of its history. The fate of our Motherland and its future depend on each us.
Today, on Victory Day, we feel it ever more sharply and never fail to draw inspiration from our generation of the brave, noble and wise victors, and the way they cherished friendship and remained firm in the face of adversity, always trusted themselves and their country, and had a sincere and selfless love for their Motherland.
We are celebrating Victory Day against the backdrop of the Special Military Operation. All of those engaged in it, on the frontlines, are our heroes. We are humbled by your fortitude and self-sacrifice. All of Russia stands with you.
Our veterans, too, believe in you, and they are worried about you. That they remain involved emotionally in your lives and heroism is an unbreakable tie that binds this heroic generation together.
