Sputnik is live from the Moscow Musical Theatre, where the final of the international song contest “The Road to Yalta” is taking place on Tuesday, 3 May.
The finalists will perform songs from the World War II-era Soviet Union in the languages of their home countries.
“The Road to Yalta” festival was founded in 2019 to promote the legacy of Soviet-era war songs which have long been an inseparable part of the Russian culture. In the previous three years, the festival was held in Yalta (Crimea), where a famous conference saw Joseph Stalin, Franklin D. Roosevelt, and Winston Churchill meet to discuss the terms of peace after WWII.
