Volkov discusses Victory Day values and calls Moscow best city in world

Alexander Volkov shared his reflections on Victory Day, describing it as a holiday he observes more with sorrow than joy, while still feeling grateful to veterans and glad for the victory. He emphasized teaching his children a pacifist mindset with the motto "as long as there is no war," continuing Soviet-era values he was raised with. Volkov also revisited comments he made five years ago when he described Moscow with three words: "dirt, traffic jams, construction." After visiting again last summer, he dramatically revised his opinion, now calling Moscow the best city in the world for both living and beauty. He told teammates in New Jersey that he considers Moscow superior in all aspects, noting how clean and impressive the city has become.
