Russia has staged its biggest military parade, marking 70 years of victory over Nazi Germany in World War II.
Thousands
of troops marched in Red Square in Moscow, and new armour was displayed
for the first time. More than 20 heads of states are in Moscow, but
many world leaders boycotted the event because of Russia's role in the
Ukraine crisis.
Around 16,000 troops took part in yesterday's
parade showcasing cutting-edge weapons such as the next-generation
Armata T-14 tank.

The Soviet Union lost an estimated 27 million soldiers and
civilians in World War II — more than any other country — and the Red
Army's triumph remains an enormous source of national pride.
The parade also included 194 armoured vehicles, 143 aircraft and troops from Chinese, Indian and Serbian units.

As the event began President Vladimir Putin said international co-operation had been put at risk in recent years.
Russia denies claims by the West it is arming rebels in
eastern Ukraine. More than 6000 people have been killed since fighting
began in April 2014 in Ukraine's Donetsk and Luhansk regions.
In his speech Putin paid tribute to the sacrifices of Soviet troops during World War II.
He
also thanked "the people of Great Britain, France and the United States
for their contribution to victory". But he added: "In recent decades
the basic principles of international co-operation have been ignored
ever more frequently. We see how a military-bloc mentality is gaining
momentum."
