MOSCOW, October 30 (Itar-Tass) -- More than 1,000 people attended a remembrance ceremony for political repression victims on Lubyanka Square in downtown Moscow on Sunday.

The ceremony started with a minute of silence.

“This day connects us to the national history – no less than three generations experienced terror, we bow to the memory of millions,” Yabloko party leader Grigory Yavlinsky said.

Candles were lit and flowers were laid to the Solovki stone, which was brought to Moscow 15 years ago from the Solovki prison camp by the initiative of the Moscow Memorial society. The Moscow City Council ordered to install the stone on Lubyanka Square to commemorate GULAG prisoners.
