Representatives of the allied command after the signing of the Act of Germany's surrender Many are wondering why most countries celebrate Victory over Nazism on May 8, and Russia on May 9.

What happened on May 8 and 9 - background

On May 8, most countries of the world celebrate Victory in Europe Day (V-E Day). This is a celebration of the end of World War II in Europe (a big war with Japan was still ahead). May 8 Victory Day is traditionally celebrated by the USSR's allies in the anti-Hitler coalition - Great Britain, France and the United States, as well as most of the countries of Western Europe. The reasons for this are as follows. By May 6, the German army actually ceased resistance, and fighting almost everywhere ceased, and on the night of May 7 Germany officially admitted defeat. On May 7 at 02.40 (CET) in Reims, the Act of Germany's surrender was signed. On behalf of Germany, the document was signed by the German general Alfred Jodl. The act of surrender on behalf of the allies was adopted by the general Beddell Smithand Stalin's representative to the allied command, Major General Ivan Susloparov... The next day - May 8, 1945 - Europe began to vigorously celebrate the victory and end of the war. Especially large-scale celebrations began spontaneously in London - people poured into Trafalgar Square and Buckingham Palace, where the king of Great Britain congratulated the audience from the balcony George VI, queen Elizabeth and Winston Churchill... America also celebrated, although there was still mourning for the president who died less than a month before the victory. Franklin D. Rooseveltso the new US president Harry Truman dedicated the celebration to the memory of his predecessor. However, the Act of surrender, signed on May 7, did not satisfy Stalin in some way (perhaps it seemed to him that the role of the USSR in the Victory was belittled, or maybe it was a harbinger of a sharp cooling in relations between the former allies). Major General Susloparov received a reprimand from Stalin, and the victory marshal Georgy Zhukov was instructed to once again accept in Berlin a general surrender from representatives of all branches of the German armed forces. The new Act was signed on the night of May 9, at 00.43 Moscow time. (At the same time, according to Central European time, the day of May 9 has not yet arrived, so for the Europeans the second surrender was signed on May 8). The new Act of surrender from the Soviet side was signed by Georgy Zhukov, from Germany - by Field Marshal Wilhelm Keitel and representatives of the Luftwaffe and the Navy. In order not to offend Stalin, representatives of the USA, Great Britain and France also put their signatures under the new Act. In the Soviet Union, the first act of surrender was henceforth called the "Provisional Protocol on the Surrender of Germany," and Victory Day was celebrated a day later than the Allies - on May 9. Since the 60s of the last century, the significance of this holiday has constantly grown, and therefore, even after the collapse of the USSR, the countries of the post-Soviet space (with the exception of the Baltic States) continue to widely celebrate Victory on May 9, as well as veterans who, by the will of fate, found themselves abroad (mainly in USA and Israel, in which May 9 is considered an official memorable day). In other countries, the main celebrations are held on May 8, but military parades on this day are not accepted, the emphasis is on memory, honoring veterans and commemorating the dead.

St. George's ribbon and red poppy

In Russia, one of the symbols of the holiday on May 9 is considered to be the St. George ribbon, which has recently begun to be used especially widely and, sometimes, not at all for its intended purpose. In Europe, the red poppy is considered the symbol of the Victory Day. Historically, this is connected with the memory of the red poppies, which, after the First World War, grew the fields of Flanders, on which the bloodiest battles took place. Already during the Second World War, red poppies became a symbol of Polish resistance. The famous song "Red Poppies on Monte Cassino", dedicated to the storming of the Monte Cassino monastery by the Second Polish Corps (Anders' Army), is still not only in Poland, but also in other countries. In order to "reconcile" May 8 and 9, in 2004 the UN General Assembly proclaimed both these days as the Days of Remembrance and Reconciliation, while recognizing, however, the right of different countries to celebrate their Victory Days.

What about Ukraine?

In 2015, Ukraine will first celebrate May 8 as the Day of Remembrance and Reconciliation. May 9 in Ukraine will also remain a holiday. Following the European tradition, Ukraine on this day will use a red poppy as a symbol, which is already present on holiday posters and on rollers issued in honor of the holiday. On May 8, events in Ukraine will be of a chamber, mourning nature, and on May 9, traditional processions of veterans will take place, in which former soldiers and officers of the Soviet Army and members of the insurrectionary movement in Ukraine will take part. In the Baltics, Soviet veterans were also promised not to interfere with their desire to celebrate May 9, and the mayor of Riga Neil Ushakov even made a special clarification about the “legality” of using the St. George ribbon as a symbol. In Russia, May 9 is also perceived by many as a day when one should first of all thank the surviving veterans and pay tribute to the memory of the dead, remembering the colossal sacrifices our country suffered during the Great Patriotic War.

Every day something happens in the world, leaving a bright trace in history.

Significant events that took place on May 8

Nikolai Gumilyov and Anna Gorenko got married near Kiev (1910). The ritual was performed in the Nicholas Church in the village of Nikolskaya Slobodka. Then Gumilyov was already a famous poet. A year later, the pseudonym "Akhmatova" will appear under Gorenko's poems.

The final Act of Germany's unconditional surrender was signed in Berlin (1945). The document was signed at 22:43 in the Karshorst suburb of Berlin. Moscow time it was 00:43 on May 9, which is why in our country this number falls on Victory Day.

Inauguration of the monument-ensemble to the soldiers of the Soviet Army in Berlin (1949). The memorial is dedicated to 20 thousand Soviet soldiers who died in the capture of the capital of the fascist state. At the same time, the monument is a military burial.

There is a historical basis for this. On May 7, 1945 in France in the city of Reims, General of the American Army Walter Bedell Smith, Commander-in-Chief of the Western Front in Europe, Eisenhower, and Soviet General Ivan Susloparov signed the "Act of Germany's unconditional surrender" with the German command, which was to enter into force on May 8 at 23.01 according to the Central European time. At this time, bloody battles were still going on in the East, and almost a week remained before the liberation of the Czech Republic.

The representative of the Soviet military mission, Susloparov, was asked to read the text of the surrender and sign it on behalf of the Soviet government. The signing was scheduled for 2 hours 30 minutes. May 7. Ivan Susloparov sent the text of the Act with a dispatch to Moscow. However, by the appointed time, he received no answer. He had to take responsibility for himself and sign the "Act of Germany's unconditional surrender." However, the Soviet general added a note, according to which another, more perfect, surrender document could later be signed, if any of the allied states announced it.

The next day, May 8, at Stalin's insistence, the Act was ratified by all parties involved in Berlin. At the time when Zhukov and the allies finished the paperwork, the next day came in Soviet time - May 9th. In the USSR, such an important holiday for the Soviet people was fixed on May 9, the date of the official signing of the Act. The treaty signed on May 7 is commonly referred to as the "Provisional Act of Germany's surrender."

In Europe, this event is timed to coincide with May 8, because on this day, in 1945, thousands of people learned that fascism had been defeated, took to the streets and celebrated.

V-E Day

In Europe, the celebration of Victory Day is no longer on such a scale as it was in the first years after the war. Reconstructions of hostilities, panoramas, exhibitions of old military weapons are practically not satisfied.

Germany was no exception in celebrating Victory Day. The holiday is also celebrated on May 8, but it has the official name "Day of Liberation from National Socialism and the end of World War II in Europe." Modern Germany does not consider itself the successor of the Nazi state, therefore, on this day, wreath-laying takes place at the monument to the Liberators.

In 2005, the UN General Assembly decided to consider May 8 and 9 as Days of Mourning and Reconciliation. These days are dedicated to the memories of those who gave their lives for the sake of peace on earth.

In 1945, on May 8, in Karshorst (a suburb of Berlin) at 22.43 CET, the final Act of the unconditional surrender of Nazi Germany and its armed forces was signed. It is not by chance that this act is called final, since it was not the first.

From the moment the Soviet troops closed the ring around Berlin, the historical question of preserving Germany as such arose before the German military leadership. For obvious reasons, the German generals wanted to capitulate to the Anglo-American troops, continuing the war with the USSR.

To sign the surrender to the allies, the German command sent a special group and on the night of May 7 in the city of Reims (France) a preliminary act of Germany's surrender was signed. This document stipulated the possibility of continuing the war against the Soviet army.

However, the unconditional condition of the Soviet Union remained the demand for the unconditional surrender of Germany as a fundamental condition for the complete cessation of hostilities. The Soviet leadership considered the signing of the act in Reims only an interim document, and was also convinced that the act of surrender of Germany should be signed in the capital of the aggressor country.

At the insistence of the Soviet leadership, the generals and Stalin personally, the representatives of the allies gathered again in Berlin and on May 8, 1945, they signed another act of surrender of Germany together with the main winner, the USSR. That is why the Act of Germany's unconditional surrender is called final.

The ceremony of solemn signing of the act was organized in the building of the Berlin military engineering school and was chaired by Marshal Zhukov. The final Act on the unconditional surrender of Germany and its armed forces is signed by Field Marshal V. Keitel, Commander-in-Chief of the German Navy, Admiral Von Friedeburg, and Colonel General of Aviation G. Stumpf. On the part of the allies, the Act was signed by G.K. Zhukov and British Marshal A. Tedder.

After the signing of the Act, the German government was disbanded, and the defeated German troops completely laid down. In the period from May 9 to 17, Soviet troops took prisoners about 1.5 million German soldiers and officers, as well as 101 generals. The Great Patriotic War ended with a complete victory for the Soviet army and its people.

In the USSR, the signing of the final Act of Germany's unconditional surrender was announced when it was already May 9, 1945 in Moscow. By the decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR, in commemoration of the victorious end of the Great Patriotic War of the Soviet people against the Nazi invaders, May 9 was declared Victory Day.

May 8 events

May 8, 1945 - The Act of Final Surrender of Germany was signed in Berlin, and it was announced on the radio early on May 9

In one of the suburbs of Berlin, late in the evening (local time, the next day had already come in Moscow) on May 8, the Act of the final military surrender of Germany was signed. Several representatives of the German High Command took part in its signing. The Soviet Union was represented by Marshal of the USSR G. Zhukov, and the allies - by Marshal of Britain Tedder.

Even before the signing of the Act of surrender, Stalin approved May 9 as Victory Day, which was announced on the radio in the morning on that day. After the final surrender, German troops began to lay down their arms.

Thus ended the fierce Great Patriotic War, which became for our people the most nightmarish and protracted lesson in life for the entire period of the 20th century. For those who have visited the front, the memories of the military events have forever remained an indelible stain in the memory of old people, making their hearts tremble until death.

May 8, 1965 - The Presidium of the USSR Armed Forces approved a new Regulation on the introduction of the honorary title "Hero City"

For the first time in the USSR, such cities as Leningrad, Sevastopol, Stalingrad and Odessa began to wear the title of "Hero City". The list included the cities of the Soviet Union that showed massive heroism and courage during the Second World War, defending their homeland from the onslaught of the enemy. In this Regulation it was also said that in addition to the highest rank, the city was also awarded the Gold Star medal, the Order of Lenin, and a special certificate was awarded on behalf of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet.

On the signs of the Hero-Cities, the Gold Star medal and the Order of Lenin were imprinted, and in the cities themselves an obelisk was erected with the image of these awards and a solemn text. Over the next years, the title of "Hero City" was awarded to several more cities: Minsk, Kerch, Tula, Novorossiysk, Smolensk and Murmansk.

May 8, 1984 - Boycott of the Summer Olympic Games in Los Angeles was adopted by the USSR National Olympic Committee

The decision to boycott was dictated by the danger of violence against the athletes of the Soviet Union. However, many were well aware that this step was a response to a boycott of some Western countries, as well as the United States of America. On May 10, IOC President Juan Samaranch visited Moscow.

The purpose of the visit was to hope for a meeting with the first person of the state to resolve the erroneousness of the decision. The arrival of the IOC President led absolutely nowhere. However, Samaranch did not become upset and declared to the public: "Yes, God is with them, because they are the injured party."

Signs May 8 - Markov day, Mark of the key keeper

The Orthodox Church celebrates the day of Saint Mark and performs corresponding prayers in his honor.

It was widely believed among the people that it was on Mark, on May 8, that songbirds returned from warm lands.

Of course, a large number of different signs were associated with this phenomenon.

They said that by May 8, the buds of cherries, pears and aspens should open. The people called the holiday differently: Mark the key-keeper, Markov day, the feast of women, Bird starvation.

On May 8, St. Mark's Day was celebrated and was considered the ruler of the spring rains. It was said that if it rains for at least three days in May, a rich harvest can be expected.

Therefore, the May thunderstorms were always very happy. By the way, the name of the day "Keymaster" just arose for the reason that, according to ancient beliefs, Mark had the keys to the sky, which he unlocked in order for the rain to fall.

They prayed to Saint Mark that day that he would protect the crops from drought, asked to send heavy rains, saying that a little rain only muddies the earth, and a heavy rain, on the contrary, cleans it.

They sowed buckwheat and met migratory birds, throwing hemp seeds to them.

It was also a common tradition to catch siskins on Mark's Day, May 8, as they bring happiness. By the way, this custom is still alive in Tula. This was usually done by old people.
