Zelensky’s War Message Sends Shivers Through Russia: Ukraine Planning to Bomb Victory Day Parade?

Zelensky’s latest remarks have sparked alarm in Moscow, as he hinted that Russia’s iconic May 9 Victory Day parade may be in the crosshairs. While calling for a longer ceasefire, Zelensky suggested that Russia should worry more about the ongoing war than celebrations — a statement Russian officials claim amounts to an open threat. Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova accused Kiev of plotting terrorist-style attacks while pretending to seek peace. #VictoryDayParade #ZelenskyAttack #RussiaVictoryDay #UkraineStrikeThreat #PutinVictorySpeech #RedSquareParade #RussiaMay9 #ZelenskyVsPutin #UkraineRussiaWar #VictoryDay2025 #PutinParadeSpeech #MoscowParade2025 #RussiaUnderThreat #May9Parade #VladimirPutin ~HT.178~GR.124~PR.152~ED.194~

Ukraine Turns on Trump: 90% Say Don’t Trust Him After He Refuses to Blame Russia & Offer Guarantees

In a stunning political shift, nearly 90% of Ukrainians say they don’t trust U.S. President Donald Trump, according to a new poll marking his first 100 days back in office. Once seen as a possible dealmaker in the Russia-Ukraine war, Trump is now viewed with deep skepticism in Kyiv after refusing to provide security guarantees, blaming Ukrainian leadership for the ongoing conflict, and proposing a controversial peace plan that many see as favoring Moscow. Is Trump abandoning Ukraine?
