Preparations for Immortal Regiment march begin in Kyrgyzstan

«Immortal Regiment» of Kyrgyzstan announces formation. The movement reported on Facebook.

It is noted that the march will traditionally start in Bishkek on May 9 at 10 a.m. from the Southern Gate. The march will also take place in Osh, Jalal-Abad, Talas, Kemin, Kulundu and other cities and villages, and a column of Kyrgyzstanis will also be formed in Moscow.

«There is no registration. Come with portraits of your veterans and stand in line! If you have no portraits, take flowers, a good mood and also get in line!» the organizers said.

The movement notes the importance of preserving the memory of the feat of our fathers and grandfathers, who gave and did not spare their lives in the fight against fascism.

We specially ask everyone not to make a political campaign out of the march. Our «Immortal Regiment» is not about politics! It is about the memory of the exploits of our front-line soldiers of different nationalities during the Great Patriotic War. This is what is written in the regiment’s charter.

Coordinators of the movement

In addition, the movement representatives ask not to use flags and symbols during the march that are not related to the victory in the Great Patriotic War and indicating affiliation with these or other participants in military operations today. «Our fathers and grandfathers who fought in the same trench — Kyrgyz, Russians, Ukrainians and many, many others — fought for peace. For a world without the brown plague of fascism and Nazism. And we must not shame their memory. The «Immortal Regiment Kyrgyzstan» has been and remains a campaign that unites peoples,» the coordinators added.
