I think he’s very low or out of hardware, and soldiers, too, for the usual big parade of might and strength.
The Rooskies are scared sh*tless that young Russian mothers carrying blown-up photos of their dead 19-year-old sons might suddenly show up and "disrupt" the festivities on nation-wide tv.

“But some have argued that the reduced events show the Kremlin is nervous about celebrations turning into shows of dissent against its invasion of Ukraine.”
dissent is WAY overdue. the russia people need to express themselves
Day 434 of my 3 day war. I have so many victories that I have to cancel victory day parades in Russia cos of all my victories.

A VIEW FROM THE EDGE OF THE ABYSS
As Mark Wauck summarizes “Ukraine’s professional military knows that the offensive would be suicidal. Ukrainian losses of manpower continue to be extremely heavy—Russia is claiming that Ukraine lost 15,000 men in April. Losses of equipment are reaching catastrophic levels as well, as Russian attacks have heavily targeted assembly areas for munitions and equipment.”
If Zelensky’s cowardice allows America’s foreign policy neocon scum to push Ukraine into a doomed offensive, it will be the most wasted effusion of blood yet in this catastrophic “proxy war.” And it will be the most disgraceful ending possible to the Neocon’s 30 years “forever war” that dropped the United States from a half century illusion of dominant hegemony to an also ran with an obsolete defense establishment and a wrecked economy, all in less than 2 years..
