RussiaToday:
Russian President Dmitry Medvedev has been to Belarus to commemorate the day on which Nazi Germany invaded the Soviet Union. The city of Brest was the first to be attacked in 1941.
The Nazis planned to conquer the city’s fortress in eight hours, but in the end, it took them more than a month.
Medvedev and his Belarusian counterpart, Aleksandr Lukashenko, visited the Brest Hero Fortress memorial complex, laid a wreath at the Eternal Flame, and spoke to World War II veterans.
