Rosenberg: This year's Victory Day parade in Moscow felt very different

The 2026 Victory Parade in Moscow was significantly scaled back, with fewer journalists and dignitaries present. For the first time, no military hardware was displayed on Red Square due to security concerns regarding a potential Ukrainian attack. However, videos of military equipment were shown on giant screens. A last-minute ceasefire between Moscow and Kyiv, brokered by Donald Trump, allowed the parade to proceed without incident.
