President Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov has taken part in flower laying ceremony to the monument of “People’s Memory” memorial complex.

It is worth to mention that honoring the veterans, who fought in the battles of the Great Patriotic War, as well as workers of the rare front and widows of the soldiers were held all around the country. Every year, the war veterans and widows of lost warriors received monetary prizes and valuable gift on behalf of the President of Turkmenistan.

Together with other fraternal peoples, brave sons and daughters of our nation have stood against hard ordeals of the war. Grandfather of the head of the State, Berdymuhamed Annayev, whose life serves as example of patriotism and dedication to his duty for our youth, was among them.

Thousands of our fellow countrymen were awarded with combat orders and medals, conferred with tittles of the Hero for honor and courage demonstrated at the battlefields of one of the cruelest wars in the history of humanity. The names of national heroes are perpetuated in memorial books “Memory” and “Glory”.

Young warriors – the successors of military traditions of Turkmen people, patriotic advises of our brave ancestors, freeze on watch in the Guard of Honor.

Beautiful flower wreaths are put to the pedestals of magnificent monuments, which became sacred place of military glory and people’s memory.

Further, all participants of the ceremony put their flowers. Students, grand and great grandsons of the heroes have also come to bow their heads to the feat of National Heroes.

After flower laying ceremony, President Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov and all participants went to special facility for fast breaking ceremony.

Having taken special place, Turkmen leader addressed the participants with speech. Having greeted the participants of fast breaking ceremony, the head of the state noted that events, which are our sacred duty, are held in “People’s Memory” memorial complex every year.
