RUSSIA: MONUMENT ERECTED BY THE DESCENDANTS OF THE WHITE GUARD
Russian/Nat
It may have been the 80th anniversary of the Russian Revolution, but the families of those who fought the Communist Reds held their own remembrance ceremony.
Descendants of the White Guard - the Tsar's military fighting force - on Saturday erected a monument in Moscow to remember those who lost their lives fighting Communism.
In Russia they're called the Whites -- those who fought to save the monarchy against a Communist takeover.
It was a bloody battle in which millions died on both sides and the Communists emerged victorious to usher in 80 years of Red rule.
But now Russia has moved towards democracy, those who fought the Communists are eager for their place in history to be recognised.
To accomplish that, these men -- most of them descendants of soldiers who fought in the Tsar's White Guard -- have erected a new monument to honour their fallen forefathers.
When the 1917 Revolution began, it became apparent that the Tsar's professional army were up against a massive nationwide force determined, at any price, to win victory.
For more than four years the Whites defended the monarchy, but in 1922 they buckled under the communist force.
Now Russia's monarchist movement is undergoing a revival, and the White Guards' Club is part of that.
SOUNDBITE: (Russian)
Of course we are not calling for the immediate restoration of the monarchy in Russia. We understand clearly that people in Russia are not yet ready for the monarchy, but we see our main task as preparing the people for the return of the monarchy.
SUPER CAPTION: Vladimir Petukhov, Leader of the White Guards Club
The Club is determined that those who died fighting to preserve the monarchy should not be forgotten.
The monument is located in downtown Moscow at the All Saints Church, and it is the first ever Russian monument to be dedicated to anti-Communist forces.
It is shaped like a cross, and is being erected on what was once the grave site of hundreds of White Guard soldiers who died fighting the Bolsheviks in Moscow.
The grave site was destroyed under Communist rule, and the tombstones were purged to remake the graveyard into a communist park.
Now, with the help of the Orthodox church, the site is being restored to its former glory.

EPISODE 13 OF VR CITY TOURS: VLADIVOSTOK ???? ???????? | A NEW VR CITY OR COUNTRY TOUR EPISODE EVERY TUESDAY
The unofficial capital of the Russian Far East and one of Russia's most important commercial ports and naval bases, Vladivostok ('Master the East') is also a thoroughly charming city, with a gorgeous, hilly setting, striking architecture and numerous verdant islands and sandy bays along its Pacific coastline.
Most notable of these is Golden Horn Bay (named for its likeness to Istanbul’s), over which now soars a massive suspension bridge, one of two built in recent years that have hugely improved the city's lumbering Soviet-era infrastructure.
The rest of Russia slowly seems to be waking up to Vladivostok's potential as well. In 2016 St Petersburg's Mariinsky Theatre inaugurated its impressive glass and steel Primorsky Stage, while the Hermitage Vladivostok is due to open in 2018. Vladivostok buzzes with cocktail bars, excellent restaurants and a renewed sense of purpose – don’t miss the Far East's most dynamic and fast-paced city.

A forgotten people. The Sakhalin Koreans.(잊혀진 사람들) Part 2.
This documentary presents a neglected aspect of World War II and a tragic legacy of the Cold War: the saga of the Koreans who spent 50 years on Sakhalin Island. Koreans were brought by the Japanese to the island as forced laborers during the war, only to be abandoned to the Soviet Union in 1945. Forgotten by everyone including their own country, less than 1,000 remain of the original 43,000 laborers. It is a universal story of displaced peoples whose lives were assigned to oblivion as the power struggle unfolded in the latter part of the 20th century.(c)
Producer/Director: Dai Sil Kim-Gibson 김대실
A tragic history of our ancestors. We should know the history and remember about it.
I want to say thank to Dai Sil Kim-Gibson, that she made this film and came to my grandparent's house 23 years ago. And also our wonderful grandfather IM PAN KHE (임판개), who was a member of this film.
Unfortunately, he died 16 years ago, he was 75 years old. But
he was able to return to his motherland and live his last days here. Although it lasted only two years.

Nikolai's Triumphal Arch-Central Square Vladivostok Russia Nepalese Traveller
Please watch: Must Visit Place In Kobe Japan
--~--
#Russia Series-2
The monument's history begins in January 1891, when the city became aware of the impending visit of heir-to-the-throne Crown Prince Nikolas Aleksandrovich Romanov. The Vladivostok City Duma, upon considering the preparations necessary for meeting their distinguished guest, decided to build stone triumphal gates in his honor.
Central Square, at the intersection of the Svetlanskaya Street and Okeansky Avenue.
The Monument to the Fighters for Soviet Power standing on the city's central square is one of Vladivostok's most recognizable symbols. Many tourists who visit the Primorsky Krai's capital for the first time associate it primarily with this majestic and the biggest in the Far East monument. And there is no wonder in that, for the Monument to the Fighters for Soviet Power has become city's main trademark long ago.

A reconstructed monument to Empress Catherine the Great, who made Crimea part of the Russian Empire in 1783, were unveiled during an official ceremony in the Yekaterininski Garden in Simferopol, Friday, alongside two bronze statues of Prince Grigori Aleksandrovich Potemkin-Tavricheski and Prince Vasili Mikhailovich Dolgorukov-Krymski.
SOT, Sergei Aksenov, Prime Minister of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea (Russian): Crimea's reunification with Russia was peaceful and totally supported by the Crimean people who have already become Russian citizens.
SOT, Sergei Aksenov, Prime Minister of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea (Russian): Historic justice has been restored with Crimea's reunification with the Motherland. Today's restoration is a tribute to the Empress and marks the restoration of justice. She [Catherine the Great] is an important historical figure for Russia. Once she had already made such a decision on Crimea's reunification with the Russian state.
SOT, Sergei Aksenov, Prime Minister of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea (Russian): I believe there are certain parallels. In 2014, our president made such a decision. The Empress Catherine made the same decision [in 1783]. The Crimea has always been a part of Russia.
