There's a HUGE Soviet war memorial in Vienna, I wandered into the plaza by accident and was like "wtf is this doing here?"

    Thanking the “liberators”, ignoring the welcome that Austria gave to Hitler.

    The Ukrainian flag painted behind it is a nice touch, if it’s still there.

    "liberators"

    Why the quotes? The Soviet military deserves credit where it's due when it comes to defending Europe against fascism during WW2
