Victory Day is a holiday that commemorates the surrender of Nazi Germany in 1945. It was first inaugurated in the Soviet Union, following the signing of the German Instrument of Surrender late in the evening on 8 May 1945 (after midnight, thus on 9 May Moscow Time).
The Soviet government announced the victory early on 9 May after the signing ceremony in Berlin.
During the Soviet Union's existence, 9 May was celebrated throughout the USSR and in the countries of the Eastern Bloc and is celebrated in many countries today also.
