In Minsk, U.S. servicemen marched together with Russian soldiers in the Victory Day parade in the Belarusian capital.
Opening the May 9 parade, Belarusian President Alyaksandr Lukashenka said it was "deeply symbolic" that representatives of the U.S. and Russian armed forces were taking part.
Forty members of the U.S. Air Force band were among more than 5,000 troops in the parade.
The show of Allied unity in Minsk was in sharp contrast to the military parade in Moscow, which was shunned by the United States and most European countries because of Russia's role in the Ukraine conflict.
Lukashenka, a close ally of Putin, had surprisingly announced that he also would not go to Moscow for the Victory Day parade.
Belarus has close ties with Russia, but Lukashenka has tried recently to serve as a bridge to the West by hosting Ukraine peace talks.

Russia Marks WW II Victory With Huge Military Paradeby webdesk@voanews.com (VOA News)
Russia staged a massive military parade Saturday in Moscow's Red Square to commemorate the 70th anniversary of Victory in Europe Day, or VE Day — the day in 1945 when Nazi troops laid down their arms, ending World War II. Russian President Vladimir Putin thanked Russia's main World War II allies — the United States, Britain and France — for helping to defeat the Nazis. This year's parade took place as Russia is embroiled in a standoff with Western countries over Ukraine because of Moscow's seizure of Crimea and allegations that President Putin is supporting a deadly separatist conflict. Russia's ties with the West are at their lowest since the Cold War. Western leaders boycotted this year's parade, leaving the Kremlin's show of strength to be exhibited before about 20 leaders from countries that included China, Cuba and Zimbabwe, along with U.N. leader Ban Ki-moon. On Friday, most of Europe and the U.S. celebrated the anniversary of the end of the war. For the first time in 70 years, Ukraine marked the day ahead of Russia. Ukraine has accused Russia of exploiting the anniversary to display its military might. In the U.S., a large array of vintage aircraft flew over Washington in honor of veterans in town for a ceremony at the World War II memorial. In his weekly address, released early for the occasion, U.S. President Barack Obama paid tribute to those who served in the war, calling them "the generation that literally saved the world." Obama urged Americans today to rededicate themselves "to the freedoms for which they fought." "Let’s make sure that we keep striving to fulfill our founding ideals —t hat we’re a country where no matter who we are or where we’re from or what we look like or who we love, if we work hard and take responsibility, every American will have the opportunity to make of our lives what we will," said Obama. "Let’s stand united with our allies, in Europe and beyond, on behalf of our common values — freedom, security, democracy, human rights, and the rule of law around the world — and against bigotry and hatred in all their forms so that we give meaning to that pledge: 'Never forget. Never again.'" French President Francois Hollande also called for unity, describing VE Day as "the victory of an ideal over a totalitarian ideology." In Paris — the scene of massive celebrations in 1945 after Germany surrendered — President Hollande placed a wreath on the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius and U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry also took part in the ceremony. In Britain, numerous remembrance ceremonies took place Friday, in addition to concerts and street parties meant to re-create the spirit of the celebrations 70 years ago. Prime Minister David Cameron participated in the commemorations, while Queen Elizabeth will attend a VE thanksgiving at Westminster Abbey on Sunday.

A still from a YouTube video by Национальный продюсерский центр «СЕТЬ»
A Russian youth group released a video seemingly showing activists projecting footage of the Moscow Victory Parade on to the walls of the White House in Washington, DC. The group blasted President Obama for undermining Russia’s WWII victory celebrations.
The YouTube clip, uploaded on Wednesday, seems to show World War II-era Soviet tanks and modern Russian armored vehicles rolling through Red Square – projected on to the wall of the US presidential residence by night. Some passers-by are seen taking videos of the giant projection.
While the project appears to be nothing but a fake created by carefully edited montage to sharp-eyed viewers, it has been met with an overwhelming support from a young Russian audience. The video scored half a million views in just over one day, with thousands of likes and comments praising the creators’ “trolling level 90.”
The video, released by students of the Russian National Cinematographic School sets out to be more than just a prank, as it starts with a message addressing US President Barack Obama.
Calling May 9, 1945, the “day when the new world was born,” the group stresses the importance of celebrating victory over Nazism internationally and together with Russia. But, it goes on to claim,“Barack Obama has forbidden many world leaders to visit Moscow Victory Day Parade and refused to come himself.”
Modern technology, however, allowed the activists to strike back at the political pressure, “If Barack doesn’t go to Moscow Victory Day Parade, the Parade will go to Barack!”
This is not the first time the student group has made their statement via cinematic work, as in March they uploaded a clip showing a projection of wall-sized lyrics of a politically-charged song on the US embassy building in Moscow.
The forged clip once again highlighted that the information found online should be treated with a healthy dose of skepticism.
On Thursday, US Permanent Representative to NATO Douglas Lute admitted that his knowledge about the ongoing conflict in eastern Ukraine comes mostly from social networks rather than intelligence reports.
“We should all ask ourselves: why is it that we know so little really about what is going on in Donbass. I mean, frankly, I read more on social media about what is going on in the Donbass than I get from formal intelligence networks. This is because the networks don’t exist today,” Lute told the Friends of Europe forum in Brussels.
Emmy award-winning radio host, Lionel, told RT that social media can’t be put on the same plate as regular news and journalism.
“The notion of social media gives the impression that there’s something valid to it,” he said, expressing the fear that over time society would “become conditioned to the fact that we go to this sites and these sources for news, but they’re not news. And, certainly, do not rise to the level of valid military intel.”
The popularity of the video by the students is no coincidence, as the rhetoric of the White House set against the backdrop of the Ukrainian crisis has irritated many young people in Russia. The unwillingness of the Obama administration to take part in the 70th anniversary Victory Day celebrations in Moscow – and particularly the centralized Western stance on it being “inappropriate”to send delegations to a military parade amid conflict in eastern Ukraine – has even been taken by some as an insult to the nation.
While Victory Day has for years been the most important holiday for the Russians as a time of unity and memory, the 70th anniversary is a particularly poignant milestone. Many believe it is the last major celebration when living veterans of the war could be honored on a national level, with fewer of them left each year. The traditional military parade on Red Square has been planned to include an unprecedented number of troops and military hardware for the ‘round’ date.
Recently, when German Chancellor Angela Merkel announced she would not attend the Moscow parade, a Russian doctor from Novokuznetsk proposed to launch a ‘polite’ flashmob by sending Victory Day greeting cards to Merkel’s administration address. The Facebook post went viral, and the idea was taken up by activists and media outlets nationwide.
Merkel, meanwhile, said she will be going to Moscow to honor WWII veterans and victims the day after the parade, on May 10.
