Multiple Former Soviet Leaders to Attend Putin's Victory Day Parade
The leaders of six former Soviet republics, including Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, and Russia, will attend the annual Victory Day parade in Moscow on Tuesday. The event will mark the 78th anniversary of the Soviet Union's defeat of Nazi Germany in World War II. The leaders will join Russian President Vladimir Putin on the tribune above Lenin's Mausoleum on Red Square to watch a procession of military vehicles and personnel. This year's celebrations may be more modest due to increased aerial attacks on Russian territory.
