  1. Respect from Indonesia ura ura ura balshoi

  2. Russia made every effort not to lose so quickly in Ukraine, they sent absolutely all their military equipment and even old tanks there. It is important to increase economic pressure on Russia and support Ukraine, then Putin will be defeated

  3. Putin is very brave for standing up to the satanic West. Its a shame the Ukrainians are being used

  4. Is this tank made of cardboard? won't it melt in the rain?😅

  5. This single tank won't be able to protect Putin from the tribunal

  6. This parade proves once again that Russia is in a deplorable state.

  7. And what happened to their powerful weapons, which have no analogs in the world?

  8. The parade seems weak. There wasn't much on display because all the weapons are already being used in the conflict in Ukraine.

  9. It's disconcerting that the parade does not feature any weapons, indicating a significant diversion of resources to the Ukrainian conflict

  10. The display of outdated equipment raises concerns about the military modernization efforts of the Second Peace Army

  11. the parade of Russia this year became the most deplorable sight in the history of modern Russia thanks to the actions of Putin, besides, the parade was canceled in many Russian cities, and now it is clear why, Russia simply does not have enough technology to hold a parade in other cities of Russia except Moscow

  12. Putin the most Incapable one. . .with him Russia will be a shadow

  13. A lot of love and respect for Russia and its people from Ethiopia.

  14. Wonder, why USA does not celebrate this date, about 450 thousand American lives were lost in ww2, does it not deserve respect for those lost lives?

  15. I hope Russia wins quickly and the deaths stop. Two white, Christian nations killing each other is exactly what Soros/US/NATO wanted when they overthrew Ukraine in 2014 and then provided aid and arms to fuel border skirmishes. #nomorebrotherwars

  16. And who helped Russia in WWII
