When I first climbed these stairs, passing through the entire Treptov Park, I felt sorrow, admiration, delight, pride at the same time! After the Motherland, the Soviet soldier liberator with a German girl in his arms is the most majestic monument of Victory! May 9, 2020 was not only the 75th anniversary of the Victory, but also the 70th anniversary of this monument!

I remember on purpose, in 1990, when I was still serving, I secretly broke out to Berlin, violating all prohibitions, to see this monument. I was amazed that steles with Stalin's statements were preserved in the park, he was not in favor with us then. And I was also surprised that the sculpture of the warrior-liberator is not very large. I thought he was the size of his mother Country. It's good that it's still standing, it's been preserved...
