Answer 1

Answer: ***FALSE***

Step-by-step explanation:

False. Victory Day, celebrated on May 9th, was not banned by Stalin in 1947. It commemorates the surrender of Nazi Germany to the Soviet Union in 1945 during World War II. The holiday was not celebrated on a grand scale between the late 1940s and early 1960s, but it was never officially banned. The large-scale celebrations were reinstated in 1965 and continue to be an important national holiday in Russia and other former Soviet republics.
