Volgograd Forum: the unity of the peoples won in the Battle of Stalingrad

The International Historical and Cultural Forum entitled "Great Victory achieved through unity: peoples of the Caucasus in the Battle of Stalingrad" took place today in Volgograd.
The Battle of Stalingrad was a major and decisive battle of World War II in which Nazi Germany and its allies fought the Soviet Union for control of the city of Stalingrad (now Volgograd) in the southwestern Soviet Union. After the Battle of Stalingrad, German forces never recovered their earlier strength and attained no further strategic victories in the East.
The conference is dedicated to the 70th anniversary of the Battle of Stalingrad and is aimed at commemorating the war and strengthening the friendly relations between the peoples of the former Soviet republics, the ancestors of which defeated fascism.
