- Russia
The Kremlin said on Wednesday that Russia's annual Victory Day military parade on Red Square had been scaled back this year and would not include military equipment due to the risk of what it described as "Ukrainian terrorist activity."
The parade, held on May 9, marks the Soviet defeat of Nazi Germany during World War Two, a conflict Russians call the Great Patriotic War.
