Introduction — May 9, 2025
A host of leaders from the global south joined President Putin to commemorate the 80th anniversary of Russia’s defeat of Nazi Germany. Along with China’s Xi Jingping and Belarusian President Lukashenko, a number of other leaders from Africa, Asia, South America and eastern Europe attended in defiance of Washington and London.
In essence we are witnessing the emergence of an alliance of nations, led by Russia, China and Iran, that won’t be dictated to by the West.
This doesn’t necessarily signal an impending military conflict but it does mean that an international realignment of power is underway.
Seen in the context of Trump’s ceasefire agreement with the Houthis, we would suggest that this signifies the waning of U.S. global hegemony and the resurgence of Russia as the pre-eminent global power. Ed.
‘Whole of Russia’ supports Ukraine invasion, Putin tells Victory Day parade
The Daily Telegraph – May 9, 2025
Vladimir Putin said the “whole of Russia” supported his invasion of Ukraine as he hosted world leaders at the annual Victory Day parade in Moscow.
Sitting alongside China’s Xi Jinping, the Russian leader watched thousands of troops – as well as drones, ballistic missiles and tanks – parade across Red Square to mark 80 years since the defeat of the Nazis.
On the sidelines, Putin made a point of embracing a North Korean general whose troops were instrumental in pushing back Ukrainian forces in Kursk.
Putin vowed that Moscow would be victorious in Ukraine just as the Soviet Union was in the Second World War.
“Russia has been and will remain an unbreakable barrier to Nazism, Russophobia, and anti-Semitism,” Putin declared.
He added that “truth and justice” are on Russia’s side and that the “entire country” supports those fighting in what he described as the special military operation.
“We are proud of their courage and determination, of the strength of spirit that has always led us to victory,” he said.
Russia has outlawed criticism of its military campaign, prompting thousands of citizens to flee the country.
For the first time, Russia featured attack drones in its Victory Day parade – including models used in Ukraine – alongside dozens of military vehicles.
It marked a shift from recent years, when few tanks were displayed due to their deployment on the front lines.
Around 1,500 troops who had fought in Ukraine were among 11,000 marching on Red Square, according to state media.
Some 20 other world leaders, including Robert Fico, the Slovakian prime minister, who defied Brussels to become the only EU member to attend, stood alongside Putin.
Mr Fico placed flowers on the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, which serves as a tribute to unidentified soldiers who died defending the Soviet Union and is one of the most revered sites in Russia.
In a notable gesture, Putin paid special attention to the North Korean delegation when greeting military leaders, embracing one of the generals after shaking his hand – a level of familiarity not extended to others.
Pyongyang recently sent thousands of troops to Russia to help Moscow oust Ukrainian troops from its Kursk region.
“All the best to you and all your troops,” Putin was heard saying.
In his opening speech, Putin went on to say that the Soviet Union “determined the outcome” of the Second World War.
He stated the USSR “took upon itself the strongest attacks of our enemies, and our citizens picked up arms and defended the front lines”.
His comments came a week after US president Donald Trump claimed it was the United States that was most important for the defeat of Nazism in the Second World War.
“We won both Wars, nobody was close to us in terms of strength, bravery, or military brilliance,” Mr Trump said.
The comments were unlikely to be well received in Moscow, as the Soviet Union is thought to have lost 27 million people including civilians and military in the conflict – although some scholars put the figure as high as 42 million. America suffered roughly 420,000 dead

A parade to celebrate the destruction of the only organised resistance to the ((( international banksters ))) along with the destruction of Europe ????
I guess you need to have a strong stomach to be in politics.
“…as the Soviet Union is thought to have lost 27 million people including civilians and military in the conflict – although some scholars put the figure as high as 42 million.” — and most of those at the hands of the mass murderer Stalin and his henchmen in a war instigated by the ((( you know who ))) brigade to destroy the German people and to usher in all of the depravity into our societies which we suffer under now.
That sure is something to “celebrate”!!!!
Russia’s Great Patriotic War is as phoney as the Jewish Holocaust. Russia’s patriotic war, which started in the 1920s and ended in the 1970s, was a war to eliminate Christians and Christianity. During the Zionist Communist Revolution, sixty to one hundred million Christians were slaughtered in the most brutal ways possible; in WWII, tens of millions of Christians were killed, and during the Zionist Communist occupation of Eastern Europe and the Balkans, hundreds of millions of Christians were enslaved and tens of millions massacred. President Putin is supporting and protecting Zionists of the Beast, Jews of the anti-Christ, the Devil’s Lying Children, and Jewish religious groups that torture and sexually abuse children while quoting readings from the Old Testament. Adolf Hitler fought against the terrors and the horrors of Zionist Communism; the Allies fought for it.
Sixty to one hundred Christians were slaughtered. During WWII another sixty milion
“RUSSIA defeated a Nazi Germany??? Good God… Monty must be spinning in his sarcophagus at such balderdash! 😡”

What you say is true. However there is something wrong on the German side as well. For instance, as soon as the NSDAP came to power they established contacts with the zionist leadership and collaborated until the beginning of the war in sep. 1939(The transfer agreement). Despite the protests of his aids including von Ribbentrop in the winter of 1939 Hitler overruled them and gave orders to carry on with the agreement. Hitler practically created the infrastructure of the future zionist state. Ex-wehrmacht officer Henneke Kardel even wrote a book “Hitler – der begrunder von Israel”…Hitler made many strange things, Dunkirk is on of them.
At the same time (about 1933) Hitler started to pressurize the true ariosophers, who were at the origin of the Thule movement and the national-sociaslist ideas like baron von Zeebottendorf, Otto von Rahn and others. Von Rahn was found dead in the Alps, von Zeebottendorf was forced into exile in Turkey and later found dead in Bosphorus. So…
And of course the soviet dead number of 27 million is higly sospicious – probably the included those they killed themselves.
It is possible that Russia decided to hang its hat on the Jew propaganda- “Nazis was bad? Ya, well we defeated um, didn’t us!”
Chabad Vlad Jootin vomited out, “Russia has been and will remain an unbreakable barrier to Nazism, Russophobia, and anti-Semitism” … “anti-semitism”, huh? F*ck you, asshole.
Nothing to celebrate about Victory Day as everyone but Germany (and her allies) was too terminally stupid to comprehend that they were fighting for The. Wrong. Side.
