Russia scales back Moscow Victory Day parade, blaming threat from Ukraine

In its statement late on Tuesday, the Russian defence ministry said this year’s parade would include representatives of all branches of Russia’s armed forces and a colourful fly-past. However, it made clear that “cadets from Suvorov military schools, Nakhimov [naval] schools, and cadet corps, as well as a column of military equipment will not participate in the military parade this year”.
