Russia stages massive WW2 parade despite Western boycott

SUMMARY

Yesterday, May 9, Russia celebrated the 70 years since the victory over Nazi Germany in World War II.
It all began with a speech by current Russian President Vladimir Putin, who thanked the Soviet troops who were present in Second World War and also thanked the USA, France and UK to help them beat Germany.
At 10:00, it started the parade of Russian soldiers marched through Red Square in Moscow, and Chinese troops also marched in Moscow for the first time.
The spectacle of aircraft, which flew over Red Square was very beatiful.

OPINION

When I lived in Russia, on May 9 with my family, we always went to the parade of soldiers. 
But the most important parade is in the Red Square,  Moscow. I have the desire to go there someday.

In conclusion, the May 9 is celebrated in Russia as it was Christmas, it is a historic and memorable event for this country.
It should be noted that, once the parade is over, the families gather with others to eat together and celebrate the victory.
