Ukraine called unfriendly participation in the Moscow parade of the head of Armenia

The Ukrainian Foreign Ministry called the visit of the heads of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan and Central Asian countries to Moscow for the Victory Parade an unfriendly step towards Kyiv and disdain for the Ukrainian people.

On May 9, leaders of almost all CIS countries arrived in Russia: Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan. The leaders watched the Victory Parade from the central tribune on Red Square, and then laid flowers at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in the Alexander Garden. Putin and some leaders of the CIS countries who came to Russia, after the celebrations, also attended an informal dinner in the Faceted Chamber of the Moscow Kremlin.
