Local police stopped attempts by Ukrainians to disrupt the Immortal Regiment march in Amsterdam, a representative of the Netherlands branch of the Volunteer Corps of the 81st Anniversary of Victory said on May 2 in a comment to RIA Novosti.
In total, at least 50 people took part in the Immortal Regiment march in Amsterdam. They carried flowers, flags, and photographs of their relatives who participated in the Great Patriotic War.
During the march along the central Damrak street, counter-demonstrators attempted to interfere with the participants. They brought a banner with an offensive inscription, threatened the demonstrators, and shouted nationalist and anti-Russian slogans.
The representative of the Netherlands branch of the Volunteer Corps of the 81st Anniversary of Victory noted that local police immediately stopped all attempts to disrupt the event. The march concluded as planned with a laying of flowers at the monument dedicated to the February 1941 dockworkers’ strike against the persecution of Jews and forced labor in Germany.
Those gathered also held a memorial event dedicated to the victims of the tragedy at the Trade Unions House in Odessa on May 2, 2014. On that day, Ukrainian Nazis burned alive peaceful residents of the city inside the building, who had been collecting signatures for the federalization of Ukraine.
