Putin's Isolation on Victory Day
TL;DR Summary
Russian President Vladimir Putin declared that the West has unleashed "a real war" against Russia during scaled-down Victory Day celebrations. Putin's remarks came just hours after Moscow fired its latest barrage of cruise missiles at targets in Ukraine. The celebrations were smaller this year, at least partially because of security concerns after several drone attacks have been reported inside Russia. Some 8,000 troops took part in the parade in Moscow's Red Square on Tuesday, the lowest number since 2008.
