According to RIA Novosti, the event began with a rally with Lebanese and Russian flags.

“Just as recently Russia and the USSR played a decisive role in the victory over fascism, today it is creating a new multipolar world.

Russia and its friends are moving towards these changes,” said Ali Kasem, director of the Russian cultural center in Baalbek.

Earlier it was reported about a car rally in support of Russia with the participation of several hundred people in Germany.

Similar actions took place in Syria, Montenegro, Serbia, Venezuela, Armenia, Cyprus and near the UN building in Beirut.
