Putin Defends Ukraine Invasion In Victory Day Speech

Russia President - Vladimir Putin

Russian President, Vladimir Putin, has justified that Moscow’s unprovoked invasion of Ukraine is a necessary move for “defending the motherland,” as Russian Forces continue to press ahead with their attacks in the East and South of Ukraine.

According to a claim by Britain, such actions by Russia in Ukraine is a type of what mirrored the fascism and tyranny that sparked World War II.

Putin, who presided over a military parade in Moscow’s Red Square to mark the Soviet Union’s role in the defeat of Nazi Germany in 1945, reiterated his accusation that NATO was creating threats right next to its borders but claimed that the invasion of Ukraine was a necessary proactive action.

Away from Russia to Ukraine

In Kyiv, Ukrainian President, Volodymyr Zelenskyy promised his war-ravaged nation that Ukraine will soon have “two Victory Days,” as the last Ukrainian defenders at the besieged Azovstal steelworks in Mariupol vowed to fight against Russian troops who have surrounded them.

He also addressed soldiers fighting in the Donbas Region of Eastern Ukraine, which Russia has pledged to “liberate” from Kyiv. Mr. Zelenskyy said, “Defending the motherland when its fate is being decided has always been sacred”.

In his speech on May 9, 2022, marking the defeat of Nazi Germany in 1945, Mr. Zelenskyy likened the Allies’ fight against Hitler to his nation’s struggle to repel Russia’s aggression.

“We will never forget what our ancestors did in World War II, where more than 8 million Ukrainians died. Every fifth Ukrainian didn’t return home. Soon, there will be two Victory Days in Ukraine. And someone will not have even one left. We won then. We will win now, too”.

Ukrainian President, Volodymyr Zelenskyy

Condemnation of Russia’s Victory Day

Meanwhile, British Defense Minister, Ben Wallace, while speaking at the British National Army Museum, on Monday, May 9, 2022, called out the “absurdity of Russian generals, resplendent in their manicured parade uniforms and weighed down by their many medals,” saying they are “utterly complicit in Putin’s hijacking of their forebears’ proud history of…repelling fascism”.

Mr. Wallace, also added that “All professional soldiers should be appalled at the behaviour of the Russian Army,” as they have not only “engaged in an illegal invasion and war crimes, but their top brass has failed their own rank and file to the extent they should be court-martialed”.

“Through the invasion of Ukraine, Putin and his inner circle of generals are now mirroring the fascism and tyranny of 77 years ago, repeating the errors of the last century’s totalitarian regime.”

British Defense Minister, Ben Wallace

Although speculations suggested that Putin might officially declare war on Ukraine, his 11-minute speech offered no assessment of progress in the war and gave no indication of how long Moscow will continue the ongoing invasion on Ukraine.

Russian Forces, since the start of the invasion on Thursday, February 24, 2022, have so far failed to complete the occupation of the strategic Sea of Azov Port of Mariupol, where an estimated 2,000 Ukrainian fighters continue to resist in the sprawling network of underground tunnels and bunkers of the Azovstal steel mill.
