Victory Day parades (Russian: Парад Победы, romanized: Parad Pobedy) are common military parades that are held on 9 May in some post-Soviet nations, primarily Russia, Kazakhstan, Belarus, and formerly Ukraine. They are usually held to honor the traditional Victory Day holiday. In 2015, the Ukrainian government renamed the holiday as "Victory Day over Nazism in World War II" as part of decommunization laws and in 2023 moved the holiday to (renamed Day of Remembrance and Victory over Nazism in World War II 1939 – 1945) 8 May.[1][2]
