Russians situated in Europe have been divided over political views regarding the Ukraine war and this was particularly presented during the Berlin Victory Day celebrations this month, where many indigenous Russians in Germany believe Russian President Vladimir Putin's reasons for going to war in Ukraine, whereas others are vocal in their opposition. Despite this division amongst Russians, there is general consensus that the Victory Day celebrations, the day which Russia marks as a sign of success over fascism, had turned into a propaganda tool.
