Russia showed off its military might on Tuesday at an annual parade on Red Square celebrating victory over Nazi Germany in the Second World War.
Some 72 years on, feelings still run high over the sacrifices made by the Soviet Union. It lost more of its citizens than any other country in the conflict – around 25 million.
Addressing the parade in Moscow, President Vladimir Putin said: “No force will be able to dominate our people.”
“I congratulate you on Victory Day, when greatness is defined by the people, by their unprecedented heroic deed – the salvation of the Fatherland and heroic, decisive contribution to the defeat of Nazism.”
