Former young prisoners of fascist concentration camps will take part in a commemorative ceremony in the German capital. Organized by the movements For Real Affairs and Officers of Russia, it is timed to coincide with the Fascism Victims Memory Day on September 9.

The action took as a slogan one of the former young prisoners of the Nazi concentration camps "We remember. We hope. We live!" The organizers are convinced that it is important to remind the international community once again that the revival of fascism in any form is unacceptable and that it is crucial to oppose attempts of falsification history and justifying Nazism.

Before leaving for Germany, the Russian delegation will lay flowers at the Victory Memorial on Poklonnaya Hill in Moscow. A solemn ceremony will take place at the monument to a Soviet soldier in Berlin's Treptow Park. For the first time, the order-appeal of the former young fascism prisoners to Europian peoples will be voiced there.

In addition, Russian guests will visit the museum on the site of one of the concentration camps. They also will meet victims of fascism and their relatives, veterans of the anti-fascist movement living in Germany and other European countries as well as representatives of public organizations, young people and other citizens.
