“For a world without Nazism”, “For Russia”, proclaimed banners deployed in the Luzhniki stadium in Moscow, full to bursting.

The highlight of the show, for 95,000 spectators in the stadium and 100,000 outside according to a police count, was the speech of Russian President Vladimir Putin.

After a brief interruption of about fifteen minutes, justified by public television Rossiya-24 by a "technical breakdown on a server", he estimated that it was a long time since Russia "had not experienced such unity ".

sentence of the day

kyiv commits war crimes daily”

This is a statement by Vladimir Putin, which he would have made during his telephone conversation with French President Emmanuel Macron this Friday.

During this call, “attention was drawn to the numerous war crimes committed daily by the security forces and Ukrainian nationalists,” the Kremlin said in a statement.

The number of the day

130. 

The Mariupol theater was bombed on Wednesday when the town hall counted between 1,000 and 1,200 civilians.

“More than 130 people were able to be saved.

But hundreds of residents of Mariupol are still under the rubble,” President Zelensky announced on Friday, promising the continuation of relief operations “despite the bombardments” which continue in this large port city.

According to an initial report from the kyiv city council, the bombardment caused at least one serious injury, but no deaths.

The trend of the day

On the front, the positions have not made much progress: the attempt to encircle kyiv continues, but the Russian forces have not entered it.

Karkhiv, Mykolaiv and Mariupol are still resisting.

While in Russia, pro-Kremlin demonstrators sing "Ukraine and Crimea, Belarus and Moldova, this is my country", countries close to Moscow are worried.

Russia assured that it would “react” in the event of Bosnia and Herzegovina joining NATO.

"We have shown with the example of Ukraine what we expect," slipped the Russian ambassador to Sarajevo Igor Kalabuhov.

Washington denounced “dangerous” remarks.

For its part, Norway will release 300 million euros to strengthen its army near Russia.

"Even if a Russian attack on Norway is not likely, it must be realized that we have a neighbor to the east which has become more dangerous and more unpredictable," said the Norwegian Defense Minister, Odd Roger Enoksen.
