We are hearing European leaders talking about the Victory Day celebrations - or a show of military might - in Russia today.
EDnews informs via BBC that German Chancellor Olaf Scholz says "2,200 kilometres north-east from here, Putin is parading his soldiers, tanks and missiles today.
"We must not be intimidated by such power plays. Let's remain steadfast in our support for Ukraine - for as long as it takes."
Scholz gave the speech at the European Parliament in Strasbourg.
