Even in spite of the fact that Berlin is in the hands of the Soviets, the Second World War in Europe has not yet ended. May 8 (according to Berlin time) - 9 May (Moscow time) will sign the act of surrendering Germany, and after the Prague operation (May 11), the Second World War in Europe will be fully completed.
