"Air defense rings around Moscow are being reinforced by pulling systems from the regions - the Russian Federation cares more about the parade than the entire country. This opens up additional opportunities for our long-range sanctions. Our corresponding priorities will be determined." - Zelenskyy.

Hmmm.... It would appear to favor Putin by doing this. Putin had to move his air defenses to Moscow to put on his military parade leaving other Russian targets unprotected. Now Ukraine is barred from capitalizing on this situation. I was looking forward to some May 9th parade surprises...

I'd guess Putin asked Trump to negotiate this with Ukraine so that Putin can have his military parade without too much fear of dying.

And it's a parade to celebrate victory in a war that helped start.  A war in which over 8 million Ukrainians lost their lives.

I'm like you, @DB .  I was looking forward to seeing targets burning all over Russia while Putin deploys all of his remaining air defenses on Parade Watch.

Putin says Ukraine war ‘coming to an end’ as Trump ceasefire begins

Russian President Vladimir Putin on Saturday said he thinks the war with Ukraine could end soon.

"I think that the matter ⁠is coming to an end," Putin told reporters, according to Reuters.

Putin’s words came a day after Trump announced a three-day ceasefire to celebrate the Soviet Union’s victory in World War II, as well as a massive prisoner exchange between both nations.

The ceasefire began on Saturday and will run through Monday, Trump wrote on Truth Social. "The celebration in Russia is for Victory Day but, likewise, in Ukraine, because they were also a big part and factor of World War II."

"This ceasefire will include a suspension of all kinetic activity, and also a prisoner swap of 1,000 prisoners from each country," he added. "This request was made directly by me, and I very much appreciate its agreement by President Vladimir Putin and President Volodymyr Zelenskyy."

The day was celebrated with Russia’s most scaled-back Victory Day parade in years.

The war in Ukraine has dragged on for more than four years after Russia invaded the country in February 2022, with the Kremlin initially believing it could win quickly yet Russia still hasn’t been able to take the entire Donbass region.

This is an excerpt of an article by Fox News Digital's Brie Stimson.

@Gerashchenko_en

In my opinion, yesterday a turning point in the war took place.

Perhaps we still do not fully grasp the significance of what happened.

For the first time, Putin publicly showed his weakness and inability to independently protect his capital, his parade, and himself from our strikes. Because of this, a frightened Putin was forced to publicly humiliate himself and ask Trump, as a mediator, to help stop a strike on Moscow.

De facto, Putin asked Trump to protect him from the Ukrainians.

I consider President Zelenskyy’s order a brilliant informational slap in the face and an additional public humiliation.

It is obvious that before and during the parade, Putin was physically afraid - he felt vulnerable and threatened.

Putin publicly appeared weak and humiliated, and in Russia’s "prison-style" political culture, such things are not forgiven.

A weak "tsar," mocked by everyone, cannot remain a tsar in Russia.

These are very, very hard times for Ukraine. However, Ukraine is strong, resilient, and continues the fight.

Slava Ukraini!

@oroborous

The war is not winnable for Russia, and it's turning into a demographic catastrophe.

Russia suffered 352,000 dead at the end of 2025. By now we are easily at 400,000 dead. That is 1% of the male Russian fighting age population of roughly 40 million. Another 2% are crippled and traumatized beyond repair. 1 out of every 30 Russian men between 18 and 60 has been killed or maimed by this war.

Progress on the battlefield keeps slowing. At the current pace, taking the average casualty rate per square kilometer over the last 12 and the last 6 months, Russia will need anything between 5 million and 25 million men to throw into the meat grinder just (!) to take the rest of the Donbass, Zaporizhia and Kherson.

This war is not sustainable, and it's certainly not winnable. Putin will literally run out of cattle to send to the slaughter before he can achieve even his minimum objectives.

"For the first time this year, Mediazona and Meduza have updated the overall estimate of the actual number of Russia’s losses in its war against Ukraine. It is based on the Probate Registry and reflects the number of male Russian citizens aged 18 to 59 who died since the start of the full-scale invasion to the end of 2025: 352,000."

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-

Remember back when Biden and the Democrats handcuffed Ukraine by prohibiting them from striking targets in Russia?

The Economist: For the first time in nearly three years, the momentum in the war appears to be shifting in Ukraine's favor.

The publication writes that Moscow's diminished May 9th parade became a symbol of Russia’s vulnerability to Ukraine's long-range strikes. Following a grueling winter, Ukraine has managed to seize the initiative and is increasingly exhausting Russia - both on the front lines and through strikes deep behind enemy lines.

...

What LIEden forbade was attacking inside Russia with US-supplied weapons or European weapons using US technology.

🇺🇦 For the first time in almost three years, the initiative in the war appears to have shifted to Ukraine, — The Economist

Ukraine is now turning the tide and inflicting increasing damage on Russia on virtually every front;

Russia's spring offensive not only failed, but in April, Russian troops suffered their first net territorial losses since August 2024. Russia has lost control of 113 square kilometers in the last 30 days;

The drone kill zone, which stretches about 20 kilometers between the front lines, is expanding far into Russia's rear;

Economic and military targets located almost 2,000 kilometers from the Ukrainian border are being regularly hit;

Overall, this looks like a turning point in the war. If the Russians fail to achieve any results, everything will begin to crumble in some places.

"If you had to report to Putin, the picture would be pretty grim."
