“The members of the National Security and Defense Committee and I specially watched this speech (Putin – Channel 24) in order to understand the signals that he First of all, to its citizens and the armed forces, because May 9 for Russia is a symbol of precisely military power, military power, “” the People's Deputy noted.
Speech Putin was very weak
As Venislavsky said, Putin's speech, both in content and in form, was very weak emotionally. There were no words to raise the morale of the soldiers who continue the senseless and brutal war in Ukraine.
This means that psychologically there has been a certain break. Probably at the level of the top military-political leadership. Putin was alone. Even the closest CSTO comrades-in-arms did not come to him for various reasons, the people's deputy noted.
The weakness of Russia is evidenced even by the weapons that the Russians demonstrated at the parade. In particular, the BMP-2 is outdated.
“I am deeply convinced that this was Putin's last parade in this format on May 9. I am convinced that this will not happen again next year,” he added. Venislavsky.

- A few days before the parade, Western media reported that Putin, at the May 9 parade, would hint the West at a nuclear war with a doomsday aircraft, the Il-80, which could transport the top leadership of Russia in the event of a nuclear war. One thing didn't happen. According to Informnapalm, the real reason for the cancellation of the air part of the parade was the diagnosed malfunction of the Doomsday aircraft.
- The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine reacted to the Russian parade. They stressed that rapists and murderers took to the march. At the same time, the parade itself is just a propaganda show that has nothing to do with the victory in World War II.
