VE Day marks the end of the Second World War – but the world is still at war

NAIROBI, Kenya: The world commemorated the 75th Anniversary to mark the end of the Second World War, also called Victory in Europe or VE Day, on May 8, 2020.

With her nation, and much of the world still in lockdown due to Covid-19, England’s Queen marked 75 years since the allied victory in Europe with a poignant televised address. From Windsor Castle, Queen Elizabeth 2nd said, “the wartime generation knew that the best way to honor those who did not come back from the war, was to ensure that it didn’t happen again.”
