May 9 celebration

Vladimir Putin is overseeing a huge military parade Thursday to celebrate the Soviet Union’s victory over Nazi Germany, a move the Russian president has called upon extensively to justify his attack on Ukraine. More than two years after the start of the large-scale offensive against Kyiv, in February 2022, the Russian military has made small gains in eastern Ukraine and, despite losses, is in a better position than the previous year.

Vladimir Putin, 71, has made the conflict one of the hallmarks of his power policy, promising his fellow citizens “victory” at every turn in the struggle against the Ukrainian government, which is presented as “neo-Nazi”. The Kremlin leader has long mobilized the memory of World War II — in which 27 million people died on the Soviet side — to present himself as the heir to the Soviet Union’s power and legitimize his own authority.

The May 9 military parade, staged as a grand spectacle, is central to this belligerent narrative that purports to elevate the nation’s power.
