Two weeks before the Victory, on the destroyed bridge over the Elbe near Torgau, the troops of the allies of the USSR and the United States met.
It is possible that at this moment, in the comfortable presidential offices, someone was already describing the scenario of the upcoming cold war, but the military photojournalist sent the world «a message», which until today is an amazing expression of the best human qualities – friendship, military honor, common victory.
So like today, at the turn of a new sanctions tension, while short-sighted politicians are sharing the Victory, erecting walls of mutual distrust, our colleagues, photojournalists from many countries, opposed the political day with their journalistic message over borders, calling for mutual respect, if not for friendship, then for civil honor, if not for victory, then for common peaceful coexistence. Russian, English, Belarusian, American, Ukrainian, Kazakh, Australian, Georgian, Czech soldiers look at us from portraits.
