This step is due to the fact that the demonstration of the military power of the Russian army against the background of failures in Ukraine will not cause "emotions in Russian citizens. This assumption was made on April 18 by the Coordinator of the International Projects of the Razumkov Center, military expert Alexei Melnyk in an interview with the Observer.
"Against the backdrop of defeat in Ukraine or lack of progress, doubts that" everything goes on plan ", this is a rattling weapon now causes completely different emotions," the expert said. According to Melnik, earlier this tool in the Kremlin's hands was effectively worked for mobilization. However, now Russia has been in a situation that it is forced to give up parades.
Although this initiative comes from the regional authorities, if the relevant team comes from Moscow, the parades will still be held, no matter what. "At the same time, if the Kremlin was instructed to carry out, they could not deny. In addition, due to the threats of shelling, for example, in the Belgorod region, from dozens of settlements of residents were forcibly evicted.
In this regard, the territory of the Russian Federation is actually at the depth of reach of Ukrainian artillery is a zone of fighting. Therefore, if on May 9, the military facilities will be struck, then the parade will not look like a festival, Melnyk summed up. We will remind, the governor of Belgorod region of the Russian Federation Vyacheslav Gladkov on April 6 stated that a parade in honor of May 9 in Belgorod may not be.
