Days of Russian Glory took place in Italy, according to the website of the Moscow House of Compatriot. The event was held online by the Harmony Milanese Russian School with the assistance of the Borodina Russian Center and the Coordinating Council of the Associations of Russian Compatriots in Italy. 

Students, teachers and graduates of Russian schools in Italy took part in the lecture. They thanked the organizers of the event for their work to perpetuate the memory of the role of Russia and its people in the history of Europe and the world.

The Borodina Russian Center has been implementing the "Unknown Pages of the Great War: Tyrolean Memory" international program for several years. It reveals the history of Russian prisoners in Austria. Captured soldiers built front fortifications and rear communications, worked in local peasant farms. The Russians left a fond memory of themselves. It has survived to this day in place names. In total, about 10,000 Russian soldiers are buried in the Alps.
