Russian President Vladimir Putin will send a chilling “ doomsday ” warning to the west when he leads his country’s May 9 ‘Victory Day’ parades brandishing Russia's vast firepower while its forces fight on in Ukraine.
The celebrations, which mark the 77th anniversary of the Soviet Union’s victory over Nazy Germany, could be used to try and reignite the country’s stuttering invasion.
The parade will see Putin speak on the Red Square before a mass of troops, tanks, rockets and missiles.
