Speaking at the "Victory Day" parade in Moscow today Russian President Vladimir Putin says any ideology of superiority is repulsive, deadly and criminal.

Regarding Western elites Putin says:

"...they still talk about their exclusivity, put people against each other and divide society, provoke bloody conflicts and coups, sow hatred, Russophobia, aggressive nationalism,

destroy those family values that make humans human"...TASS RUSSIA

Putin says that Russia's enemies today seek to destroy it.

There was tight security today in Moscow for the "Victory Day" parade celebrating the day Nazi Germany surrendered to the Soviet Union in 1945.

A military flyover for the parade was cancelled.
