All targets at the military parade in Moscow are absolutely legal for Ukrainian strikes, believes Yevhen Dykyi.

On May 9, the Ukrainian Defense Forces are unlikely to strike at the parade in Moscow. This opinion was expressed on Radio NV by Yevhen Dykyi, a veteran of the Russian-Ukrainian war, former company commander of the Aidar battalion, and director of the National Antarctic Research Center.

“And not because the Russian air defense works so well. It is precisely the Russian air defense that demonstrates its powerlessness and helplessness the further it goes. It seems that Moscow has finally understood this. We have already discussed their unsuccessful attempt to outwit us diplomatically. That is, to protect Moscow from the sky by declaring a three-day truce. It is very good that we were able to outwit them and instead offer a 30-day truce. And it turned out that they are no longer ready for 30 days,” said Dyky.

The veteran noted that Ukraine has all the technical capabilities to strike Moscow on May 9. Similarly, according to Dyky, Ukraine has every reason to strike the columns during this parade, since this can quite easily be considered a military target. 

“But yesterday Xi Jinping confirmed his participation in the parade. I’m afraid that in this case one elderly Chinese man will do what the entire Russian air defense cannot do. He will make sure that we don’t attack this parade,” Dykyi added.

  1. Ukraine should not refrain from attacking this parade, with or without the fat chink being present. Give the idiot a stern warning and be done with it.
