Putin is challenging with the continued ceasefire talks

He embraced the North Korean general. The leader of China has been crushed about special care. Talk about the sacrifices of the soldiers. Russian -made drones were first shown via Red Square.

President Vladimir F. drew. Putin, Russia, pay attention to the factors that enabled him to launch a war against Ukraine until the fourth year, where he presided over Fridays in Moscow to commemorate the eighties of the Soviet victory over the Nazis during World War II.

Mr. Putin’s invasion of Ukraine in 2022 initially demonstrated a catastrophic of Russian forces, but since then the situation in the battlefield. Among his assistants: North Korean soldiers and ammunition, the purchase and technology of Chinese oil, and Russian soldiers who are facing huge losses and it seems that an endless swarms of Russian drones.

All of them were represented in Red Square in some way, as the Russian leader stressed the world, through a profile of the Soviet style of the competition and militarization, that he does not need to stand in Ukraine.

“Truth and Justice to our side,” Mr. Putin told more than 11,500 military personnel that the Kremlin said he had gathered in the show, including more than 1500 participants in the Moscow war against Ukraine.

Mr. Putin added, using the Kremlin, chosen by the war, added: “The entire country, a society and people supporting the participants in the special military operation.”

“If people believe that Russia has exhausted, the will, equipment and employees to fight are not present, then these people have died.”

“This is the message that he is trying to send,” said Mr. Gabov. “It is not necessarily that this is the reality.”

Mr. Gabov indicated that, in addition to the Chinese leader, Xi Jinping, one of the most powerful people in the world, Mr. Putin also welcomed President Luiz Inosio Lula da Silva of Brazil, the largest country in Latin America. Their presence was part of a broader attempt by the Kremlin to show that despite isolation from the West, Russia has maintained in many cases to improve relations elsewhere.

On a journey that will serve as a response to Mr. Putin’s gathering, the leaders of four countries allied with Ukraine – Britain, France, Germany and Poland – made Saturday made Their joint visit to them To Kyiv, the capital of Ukraine. Their arrival to show their support and highlight their invitations to Russia to agree to an unconditional ceasefire for 30 days.

The events came at a time when President Trump, who promised the campaign of the campaign to the mediator of peace in Ukraine within 24 hours, promised that talks with Russian officials continued. Repeat his support for the ceasefire, which Kyiv supported, and Be threatened Additional sanctions if Russia is designed.

Mr. Trump in fact wrote before the events: “Thousands of young soldiers die weekly, and everyone should stop.” “I do, the United States of America does, too.”

Mr. Trump is scheduled to start this week on a trip to the Middle East, the first major foreign invasion of his second term, although he said he would not meet with Mr. Putin.

Trump administration officials were enthusiastic about concluding a deal with Mr. Putin to end the war in Ukraine, but they have since said that Russia has been asking a lot in negotiations and threatened to move away.

Mr. Putin can welcome this result, especially if he can continue to normalize relations with Washington and achieve sanctions, without the need for a privilege in Ukraine.

“The ongoing question will be: If the United States is actually retreating from negotiations to try to end the war, will the US course continue, reset,?” Angela Sattent, Russian expert and professor of Eritrea at Georgetown University, said. “I think we do not know it completely yet. What Putin wants, and he wanted it from the beginning, is the separation of the two.”

In the broadcasting comments on Sunday on State TV, Mr. Putin said that Moscow has “sufficient strength and means to bring what started in 2022 to a logical result with the result required by Russia.”

On the day before Friday’s celebrations, Mr. Putin held a separate summit for Mr. Xi, the most important foreign partner for Karmlin, and signed a set of joint documents that highlight the United States implicitly and frankly.

The data seemed to be calibrated to connect that despite Mr. Trump’s demands for peace negotiations with Moscow and in his commercial war with Beijing, the nations will stand together.

Mr. Shi denounced what he called the dominant bullying, in a clear reference to Mr. Trump’s trade. Mr. Putin, who cleared his marriage against the United States while he was hoping to reset relations with Washington, appears to be the confrontation less than the two.

“Time and tone may not be what Russia wants,” said Mr. Gabeef. “But this is the price you pay for being a partner in China.”
