Moscow: It has been 70 days since the Russian-Ukraine War between Russia and Ukraine. Many cities in Ukraine have been destroyed in the attack. Russia has also started renewed attacks on many cities. Meanwhile, some media reports are claiming that Vladimir Putin is going to declare an all-out war on Ukraine on Russia’s Victory Day on 9 May. However, the Kremlin, the office of the Russian President, has termed these reports as rubbish.
A Kremlin spokesman issued a statement on Wednesday, dismissing all speculation about Victory Day. Western officials have speculated that President Vladimir Putin may use the May 9 Victory Parade to announce an increased military crackdown on Ukraine. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov on Wednesday called the speculation “untrue” and “foolish”. Russia launched the first attack on Ukraine on 24 February. By the way, Moscow still does not consider it a war. Putin has been calling it a special military action on Ukraine.
Putin said Russia had no plans to annex Ukraine, but warned that anyone trying to engage with Russia would receive an immediate response. Ukraine has said that Russia has completely attacked it.
Let us know why Russia is not ready to accept its military action in Ukraine as war…
Recently, Britain’s Defense Secretary Ben Welles has claimed that after May 9, Russia will launch a large number of troops in Ukraine and May 9 will be the date when Russia will declare world war on the world.
He told LBC radio, “I wouldn’t be surprised and I have no idea what announcement Russia is going to make this May 9. But it is quite possible that Russia is going to make a big announcement about Ukraine.
Russian officials so far are calling this attack a special military action. Russia refers to this as a “special military operation” for non-Nazi countries. Moscow justified the attack, citing an unfounded claim about the Nazis in the Ukrainian government. It is being said that Russia does not want to tarnish its image. Russia has invaded Ukraine, but it is not considered a war.
Along with the annual parade in Moscow, there have long been reports that the Kremlin is planning some sort of additional parade in the southern Ukrainian city of Mariupol. Almost all areas of the city of Mariupol are now under Russian control. Only the Ukrainian army remains at the Azovstal steelworks plant.
Mariupol is completely under Russian occupation
The latest reports suggest that Russia has resumed attacks on these steelworks after the recent successful evacuation of some civilians. In such a situation, the soldiers posted here have lost contact with their control room.
Will the war in Kyiv resume?
These attacks by Russia have also fueled the debate once again on whether the war of Kyiv has started again. Because for the past several days, Russia had tried to show that its target is now the eastern region of Ukraine by laying siege on the eastern areas, but the sudden attack on Kyiv is telling that Putin’s one eye is fixed on Kyiv.
Why is the Victory Day Parade in Russia only on May 9?
Now the question arises that why the preparations to celebrate the Victory Day parade in Russia on 9th May have intensified. Preparations for the celebration are going on in Russia. You must also be thinking that in the midst of the war, Russia is preparing for which celebration, then Russia is busy preparing for the Victory Day Parade. Rehearsals of 11 thousand of soldiers are going on in Moscow. The parade will also include 8 MiG-29 planes. The MiG-29 plane will fly in the Z formation. On May 9, there will be a Victory Day parade in Moscow.
Actually, celebrates the victory over Germany in the Second World War. The parade is held on 9 May every year since 1995. Russia also wants to win the Ukraine war on 9 May. The army has been asked to end the war by 9 May. This means that Russia wants to celebrate not one but two victories.
Now it needs to be understood here why Britain made this statement on 9 May. After the Victory Day parade, 11,000 Russian soldiers can be fielded on the battlefield. In such a situation, the war will reach an even wider level. Maybe that’s why the rest of the world is worried about it. This is the reason why Britain, Germany, and America have announced the supply of more weapons to Ukraine.
Zelensky warns the world
On the other hand, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky warned, “The Russian attack means the beginning of a major war in the continent of Europe.” The Ukrainian president appealed in the Russian language to the people of the neighboring country not to accept the attack and said that they were being told lies about Ukraine.
According to BBC Eastern Europe reporter Sarah Rainsford, Zelensky said, “They say this fire (of war) will free the people of Ukraine, but the people of Ukraine are free.”
Zelensky further asserted that his country was prepared for a Russian attack. He said in a cautionary tone, “What war do we not need. No cold war, no summer, no hybrid, but if soldiers attack and they want to snatch our country, our freedom, ours, or our children’s lives, we will defend ourselves. If they attack us, we will face them straight, not turn our backs.”
