Thousands of people partook in the Immortal Regiment marches in the capitals of Belarus, Armenia, Moldova and Georgia to mark the 73rd anniversary of Victory Day on Wednesday.

One of the participants in the Minsk march said that it is important to remember the veterans and the war.

"Those who forget the war expect a new one, that's why we have to, we are obliged to honour and remember our veterans."

In the Armenian capital hundreds of people marched along the half-blocked streets carrying photos of their relatives and loved ones who died during the war.

Participant Galina Kolpina emphasised that memory of her grandfather is 'sacred' to her and that she will try to make her children remember the fallen.

In the Moldovan capital of Chisinau, the country's President Igor Dodon was seen participating in the march alongside thousands of countrymen.
