| Boo to Russia's enimies |
Vladimir Putin has been mocked for Russia’s slimmed-down Victory Parade - with only one tank.
Cheers rang out across Red Square, with a gun salute and the Russian national anthem, though with a much reduced show of military hardware - and no aviation. Only one tank took part showing the impact of Russia’s war in Ukraine on the Kremlin’s military resource.
Undeterred by the reduced showing, Mr Putin said Russians were united in a “sacred” fight with the West over Ukraine that would end in victory, and accused the United States and its allies of forgetting the Soviet triumph over the Nazis in World War Two.
The T-34, an 83-year-old relic, has traditionally opened the annual display of military might because of its symbolic role in helping Russia overcome Nazi Germany.
The pressure is compensated for their lack of military equipment, will impressive display of Moscow's schoolboys, welding slingshots! It should not be forgotten the Biblical story, of Samson taking down a giant, using a signed short: the 50 caliber pistol laugh he age!
Ukraine did nothing! They posed no threat to anybody. Presumably Putin thought he could have a quick victory against his former Russian Republic. It hasn't quite worked out that way!
