No Western leader should ever participate in Moscow’s ‘Victory Day’ parade celebration, which is but another ingenuous way of covering up its crimes with its socialist cousin, the National Socialists before they broke with each other during WWII.
If the Nazis hadn’t attacked the Soviet Union, the Kremlin would have gladly stood by and watched Hitler’s army devour the half of Europe that they had already agreed upon. Afterwards, when the Soviets had completed their military’s rearmament, they would then launch a takeover of National Socialist Europe for the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics.
NOTE: That’s the case, that’s the history and that’s the way it would be, if only Hitler would have played along.

According to Finnish news agency STT, President Sauli Niinistö will not be attending Moscow’s Victory Day celebrations owing to the Ukraine conflict and the tense international situation that is has led to.
Russian President Vladimir Putin has invited many heads of state to the Victory Day celebrations in May, which will be more festive than usual to mark 70 years since the end of the Second World War in Europe in 1945 when Nazi-led Germany surrendered to the then-Soviet Union and Western Allies.
German Chancellor Angela Merkel has also announced that she will not be attending Moscow’s Victory Day parade.
Niinistö’s press secretary Liina Aulin told Yle that Russia’s state leadership was informed about the Finnish President’s decision on Tuesday.
