Members of the Russian Embassy celebrated the Fatherland Defenders’ Day by laying wreaths at the memorial of Russian soldiers, defenders of Belgrade in 1914 and 1915.
Wreaths were laid by the Russian Ambassador to Serbia H. E. Alexander Chepurin, members of the Russian military mission, representatives of the Serbian Parliament and numerous Russian citizens living in Serbia. The Fatherland Defenders’ Day is celebrated since 1993 instead of the Red Army Day.
