Every year since the declaration of its independence Ukraine (as well as other former Soviet republics) has celebrated the Victory Day over fascist Germany on May 9th. 

In 2014 Ukraine decided not to organize big parades and to avoid gatherings of crowds to prevent its citizens from possible Russian terracts and provocations which happened in Odessa on May 2.
