OREANDA-NEWS  Residents of Seoul, Beijing, Tokyo, Buenos Aires, Caracas, Cologne and other cities of the world became participants of the Immortal Regiment campaign. They walked through the streets with posters of heroes of the Great Patriotic War, red banners and flags of the Russian Federation.

For the first time, the Immortal Regiment campaign was organized on May 9, 2012 in Tomsk on the initiative of local journalists. After that, a community of coordinators from different cities of Russia and other countries began to form.

As part of the Immortal Regiment campaign, every year on May 9 or on the next dates, its participants march in a column, carrying banners with photos of their veteran relatives. This year there will be no traditional full—time march in Russia, the action will be held in a mixed format - both online and offline. One of the proposed formats is the "Immortal Regiment" for motorists.
