Something you could have found out just as quickly and easily. That's the real point. You make a habit of pontificating and backing it up with diddly sqwatt. You can't/won't even look up simple facts.
Most population centers in Russia and Ukraine have one. At least in Ukraine and I presume in many places in Russia as well there is also a parade and wreath laying ceremony on June 22, the anniversary of the German Invasion.
Actually, I said the exact opposite. That it IS possible to answer a simple question with a simple answer WITHOUT being a jerk. Sorry for the confusion.
