Putin will address the “grandest” ever annual Victory Day parade in Moscow on Friday for the 80th anniversary of the defeat of Nazi Germany in World War II to rally support for his troops fighting in Ukraine.

China has sent 102 soldiers –- the largest foreign military contingent among the 13 participating nations –- for the event.
Ukraine warned Tuesday against any foreign troops participating in the parade, calling it “unacceptable” and helping Moscow “whitewash its war crimes”.

China has portrayed itself as a neutral party in the more than three-year conflict, although Western governments say its close ties to Russia have given Moscow crucial economic and diplomatic support.
Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky in April accused China of supplying arms to Russia and alleged Beijing knew of at least 155 Chinese nationals fighting alongside Russian forces.

A European Commission spokesperson said on Wednesday that China continues to be the key enabler of Russia’s war in Ukraine and that without China’s support, Russia would not be able to wage the war to the same extent.
This was reported by the Ukrainian National Resistance Center (NRC) on Telegram, as cited by Ukrinform.
“Russia is once again masking a crime as ‘care’. Denis Pushylin, the Russian-installed leader of the so-called DPR, stated that this summer over 50,000 children from temporarily occupied Donetsk will be taken to Russia for ‘vacation’,” the NRC reported.
According to the Center, 13,000 children are to be sent to 26 ‘sponsor’ regions of the Russian Federation; 2,500 children will be taken to camps such as Artek, Orlyonok, Smena, and Scarlet Sails, where they will be subjected to Russian propaganda programs promoting the so-called “Russian world.”
Also, teenagers aged 14 and older will be transferred to Russian universities under the University Shifts program.
The NRC stressed that this so-called “vacation” is not an act of care, but rather a cover for illegal deportation.
“This is forced assimilation, deportation, and a war crime under the Rome Statute and the Geneva Conventions. It’s an attempt to steal Ukraine’s future,” the Center stated.
They also called on residents to report deportation organizers via the NRC’s anonymous chatbot and to join the resistance movement to “make life hell for the enemy on Ukrainian soil.”

The sad thing is, the goal while defeating nazi germany, by any party, was never to actually defeat fascism, but just to make space for their own takeover.
