Russian President Vladimir Putin said on May 9 that there was no equipment at the Victory Day Parade due to security concerns.

"Regarding the parade, we decided that this year it is not an anniversary, but nevertheless, it is Victory Day. We decided that we would definitely hold festive events, but without demonstrating military equipment. Not only for security reasons, but above all because the armed forces must focus their attention on the final defeat of the enemy as part of a special military operation," the Russian leader said, answering questions from journalists.
