But there's a nuance.

Dictator Alexander Lukashenko confirmed his participation in the Victory Day parade in Moscow. This was reported by his press service after a telephone conversation with Vladimir Putin on April 12. However, there's no mention of the parade in the official message of the Kremlin. Earlier there was information that it could be canceled.

Alexander Lukashenko and Vladimir Putin had a telephone conversation on April 12, according to the press service of the Belarusian dictator. It is claimed that they exchanged congratulations on Easter, discussed bilateral relations, the preparation of the next Forum of Regions, as well as "regional and international issues."

It is also claimed that Alexander Lukashenko confirmed his participation in the Victory Day parade in Moscow.

The Kremlin website also posted a report on the phone conversation. It mentions an exchange of Easter greetings, discussion of bilateral cooperation and "mutual willingness to further strengthen allied relations." However, there is no mention of an invitation or confirmation of Lukashenko's participation in the May 9 parade in the message from the Russian president's press service.

Recently, Z-bloggers and Ukrainian monitoring channels reported that this year's Victory Parade in Moscow may be canceled or its ground part postponed due to the threat of strikes by long-range Ukrainian missiles.

"Can you imagine, "Parade, level off! Attention!" - and a missile threat is announced. What will happen in and around the square? It will be a significant blow in media terms, even if nothing flies," pro-war blogger Ilya Tumanov told Solovyov Live."
