Nearly one hundred people, including communist councillors and representatives of Balti Town Hall, participated at an action of celebration of Vladimir Lenin’s birthday, DECA-press informs.

The action was held in the court of the Military Centre from Balti, where Lenin’s monument is stored, which was removed from the centre of the locality in February 1992.

Even if it was raining, the participants at this action brought flowers to the monument of their spiritual leader. In the same place, an ad-hoc action of receipt in the group of pioneers of nearly 50 pupils from different schools from the locality has been organized.

Several veterans and pensioners from Balti recited poems and sang songs about “great Lenin”.

Valdimir Lenin (Ulianov) was born on April 22nd 1870, in Simbirsk. He founded the Bolshevik party which, in 1917, gave the coup-d’etat by taking over the power in Russia. He is also called “the leader of the world proletariat”. He died in January 1924. Lenin’s body is at the Mausoleum from the Red Square from Moscow, despite the fact, many voices in Russia opt for burying the body. // DECA-Press
