- Chinese President Xi Jinping traveled to Russia this week to participate in official events preceding the Kremlin’s Victory Day commemoration of the 80th anniversary of Nazi Germany’s defeat.

- Xi and Putin met for over three hours in Moscow, with both leaders expressing friendship and shared opposition to what they called "hegemonic bullying," while more than 20 foreign leaders attended a large military parade.
- Ukraine reported 734 ceasefire violations and 63 attacks by Russia from midnight to midday, and President Zelensky condemned Putin's truce as a "manipulation" and the commemorations as a "parade of cynicism."
- The events reinforced Russia's narrative connecting the Ukraine offensive to Soviet World War II victory memory while Ukraine sought extended ceasefires and renewed international support amid ongoing hostilities.
