Heavy security and restrictions were in place in the centre of Moscow on Friday as Russia marked the Soviet Union's victory over Nazi Germany. "Truth and justice are on our side," he said, insisting that "the "entire country, society and people support the participants" of the Ukraine war. Putin and Xi held two rounds of talks before the parade as well as an informal chat on the war in Ukraine, Chinese reports said.
