Post learns European missions in Beijing are especially troubled by Russian leader’s presence amid intensified attacks on Ukraine
According to five sources familiar with the matter, European missions in Beijing have been invited to the parade and events on the same day but are particularly troubled by the Russian leader’s attendance as Moscow has intensified its attacks on Ukrainian territory.
The parade – poised to be only the second time China has held such an event commemorating the war’s end – will offer Beijing a chance to showcase its military’s combat capabilities and expanded global clout.
The Kremlin did not say whether Russian troops would march alongside Chinese military personnel in this year’s parade.
