On May 9, a military parade took place on Red Square – without modern tanks and aircraft flights.

On May 9, a military parade took place in Moscow. The expected drone strike or emergency did not occur during the march. But something unexpected happened – not a single tank passed through Red Square, except for the museum T-34. Also, holiday organizers filmed the air part of the parade.

dictator’s speech

The parade was opened by Russian President Vladimir Putin. His speech, like last year, contained no sensationalism and was very brief. In particular, he compared the war in Ukraine to the attack on the USSR in 1941. Putin said that “a real war has been unleashed against us,” and Russia allegedly “will protect the inhabitants of Donbass and secure itself its security.”

He also accused “Western globalist elites” of “the ideology of their own exclusivity”, comparing them to the Nazis.

“They seem to have forgotten who defeated this great evil,” the Russian president said.

“Any ideology of superiority is disgusting, criminal and deadly, but the Western elites still talk about their exclusivity … The goal of the opponents, and there is nothing new here, is to achieve disintegration and destruction of our country,” Putin added.

Where are the tanks?

After Putin’s speech, a military parade began, where, among other things, remnants of military equipment were presented. One of the first launched Yarsy – strategic missile system with intercontinental ballistic missiles.

Note that not a single tank passed through the parade on Red Square, except for the museum T-34. At the same time, the air part of the parade was also canceled.
