calling for different things and opposing each other. the police have to enact measures to try to prevent the tensions between these groups from escalating, for example, by banning the exposure of ukrainian and russian flags at sites like this one across berlin. and we have seen police having to take ukraine and flags away from protesters who were here today. many different of answer, also planned to take place on a may 9th, on monday, which is a victory day in russia. and police are so awaiting the possibility of tensions developing their russia is to mock wild war to victory day when its annual period in moscow. revisions for the huge event being finalized. thousands will lie in the streets on monday to watch the child take display with high rates off. so just on military hardware, but we're the one ukraine can in thousands. how appropriate is it to celebrate? we asked people in moscow. oh yes. so the victory parade for the great patriotic
