Russian NGOs which organise celebrations of Victory Day on 9 May in Latvia are planning to start events on 8 May and to attract to celebrations ethnic Latvian young people. According to a representative of the movement of Russian compatriots in Latvia, 65^th anniversary of the end of the WWII should be celebrated two days in order not to split Latvian society on those who celebrate it on 8 May – official commemoration day in Latvia – and on those who do it on 9 May – official Victory Day in Russia.
