Russians gathered in Moscow to commemorate the first anniversary of the Kremlin’s announcement of the reunification of the four Donbass regions to the territory of Russia, raising the Russian flag during a concert held in Red Square.

Some of the chants they sang near a stage and giant screens, on which was written: "One country, one family, one Russia."

The attendees were of all ages: elderly, children, and families. One of the presenters of the ceremony said as the attendees chanted "Russia," that "exactly one year ago, historical justice triumphed," stressing that "Russia does not give up what is its own. We are one country."
