May 9, 2025 – Red Square’s Parade and the Irony of History?
By Mehmet Emin Hazret
Today is May 9, 2025.
In Moscow’s Red Square, Russia is celebrating the 80th anniversary of its victory over Nazi Germany.
80 years ago, Hitler’s Nazi army turned Ukraine into a bloodbath.
80 years later, it is Putin’s army drowning the same lands in blood.
Ukraine’s Retaliation: Waves of Drones Over Russia
Between May 5 and 7, Ukraine launched an unprecedented wave of drone attacks.
Over 400 unmanned aerial vehicles struck military targets around Moscow.
More than 350 flights were canceled.
Air raid sirens echoed across the capital.
While Red Square echoed with patriotic speeches,
Moscow’s citizens were hiding in underground shelters, gripped by fear.
Putin & Xi: “A Friendship of Steel”?
At the ceremony, Chinese President Xi Jinping joined Putin.
In a carefully crafted message, he declared:
“We must carry this friendship across generations and become true friends forged in steel.”
But is this really a “friendship of steel”?
Or just a fragile alliance of authoritarian interests?
Meanwhile in Asia: India-Pakistan Conflict and the Shadow Powers
At the same time, another front is burning:
India and Pakistan are engaged in open conflict.
Yet the real story lies behind the headlines.
Because two global powers — Russia and China — are fueling both sides.
From India, Russian-made jets are striking Pakistani targets.
From Pakistan, Chinese-made warplanes are bombing Indian territory.
Meanwhile:
Russian missiles kill civilians in Pakistan.
Chinese missiles explode in Indian cities.
This is no longer just a regional war.
It’s a proxy struggle between Russia and China — waged on South Asian soil.
“Steel Brotherhood” or Rusted Opportunism?**
Xi may speak of “hardened loyalty”,
But today’s bloodshed reveals something else:
Two regimes — united not by principle,
but by shared ambition to divide the world into spheres of influence.
As missiles rain down in South Asia,
leaders in Moscow and Beijing shake hands before the cameras.
The price?
Human lives.
Closing Thoughts
Today in Moscow, they’re honoring the defeat of Nazi Germany.
But beneath the red flags and military parades,
we see the rise of something eerily familiar.
Putin’s Russia isn’t honoring the legacy of 1945 —
It may be reviving its darkest shadows.
In this new world order,
drones, missiles, and strategic silence speak louder than truth or peace.
