President Vladimir Putin reviewed a parade of warships and nuclear submarines in his native St Petersburg on Sunday and announced that the Russian Navy would receive 30 new ships this year.
Forty-five ships, submarines and other vessels took part in Russia’s annual Navy Day event, a traditional show of military might which takes place in the Gulf of Finland and on the River Neva in St Petersburg. Around 3,000 navy personnel also took part in a parade on land, the Kremlin said.
Putin, accompanied by Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu and Admiral Nikolai Yevmenov, the head of the Navy, inspected some of the ships from a launch boat on the Neva before making a speech.
“Today, Russia is confidently implementing the large-scale tasks of our national maritime policy and is consistently building up the strength of our Navy,” said Putin. “This year alone, 30 ships of different classes are being added to the fleet,” he said.
He made no substantive comments on what Russia calls its “special military operation” in Ukraine.
Four African heads of state attended Sunday’s event and five other African countries sent representatives, according to the Kremlin.
They were invited after a Russia-Africa summit in St Petersburg which concluded on Friday at which delegates discussed grain supplies and potential peace talks on Ukraine.

You can thank me for telling you all this back months ago – when China signed onto Russia’s side – I said that was a no brainer because China’s Belt and Road Initiative, see map:
The BRI goes right through Tehran and Moscow.
And I said China can supply Russia with unlimited material support – having infinite manufacturing capability – and they can ship munitions by boat or rail to the front line AND I said they can supply manpower including North Koreans who want to kill Amerikans.
YEAH, DID YOU HEAR THAT RIGHT, NORTH KOREANS WANT TO GO TO THE FRONT TO KILL USA FAGGOT FORCES
And now military.com is calling for a USA draft.
Our only hope now is to impeach that pedo sniffer Biden who is taking us down on purpose.
Finnish golf + Black sea are traps for Russia .
they should better spread to Atlantic + Pacific .
One nuke dropped in the middle of that lot would see them all gone!🤢
It’s a scandal that it has been proven with hard facts that the 2020 presidential election was stolen from President Trump . Nearly 3 years later the thief is still acting as a president and trying to provoke a nuclear war in Europe . What are the USA armed forces doing ? Cannot they remove the thief by force ? The world is in desperate danger and the one that count are sitting idle ? How long this farce should last ? Until the time the Nukes will fly around ? Soon it will be too late !
