Vladimir Putin has again invited his “friends” to his military parade on the 80th anniversary of the victory over Nazi Germany. But this time the mood is an anxious. The Kremlin is concerned with a Ukrainian attack during the festivities.
Putin has spent the last few days negotiating a false plan with Ukraine, which has long been broken from both sides. The Kremlin boss wanted to be calm to keep his military parade. But above all: the dictator wants to prevent shame.
The military expert Markus Reisner regards a Ukrainian blow on Friday for the victory parade of Moscow on Friday, but unlikely. Ukraine would regard such a blow as a counterproductive because of negative consequences, Reisner said on Thursday. But Kyiv has surprised his allies several times.
Drone attacks on the periphery would rather disrupt the parade. The speculation about a possible attack is “something about it”. The federal lord expert pointed out that Russia saw itself on the winning road after the American swivel in the war.
Ukraine has military capacity
“You can already see the Seelower Heights with the victory,” the historian made a comparison with the last major battle of the Red Army in April 1945, who heralded the case of the German capital a few days later. “The Ukrainians want to disrupt this rush of victory,” Reisner emphasized. Accordingly, Kyiv had again surpassed the Russian border with troops in recent days.
Moreover, the country carried out the largest drone attack on the war with a total of 524 drones on Wednesday. Russian airports sank in chaos. Leading Ukrainian government representatives have also declared the military parade a legitimate goal.
Putin’s guest list as insurance
A “fatal impact on the red place” is possible because no air defense system is insurmountable. Just like a DDOS attack on a computer system, the air defense can be overwhelmed by the large number of floors, Reisner explained.
However, Putin’s ‘friends’ must also be his best protection. Especially his visit from Beijing. Putin and Xi’s murder would be a “super-gau”, Reisner referred to the use of nuclear weapons referred to in the Russian military doctrine. Above all, a head of state of an EU and NATO nation is also in the ranks of the public. Robert Fico from Slovakia.
Kremlin fears “dangerous neighborhood”
In Moscow, however, the nervousness is enormous. Complaints about temporary failures of the mobile internet have increased for days, especially in the capital. According to the government, ice rinks can still be expected until Saturday. Because: the internet was cut.
“These are not disturbances,” Kremllagers Dimitri Peskow told Russian agencies. “These are limitations at the work of the mobile internet – for understandable reasons.” The Duma parliament member Anton Nemkin spoke about an element of preventive defense and referred to the Crimea protection that was attached by Russia in 2014.
Peskow emphasized that this should be confronted with understanding. “We must take into account the dangerous neighborhood we have.”
