The spokeswoman for the Russian ministry stated that on May 4, the Russian Ministry of Defense issued an official statement “regarding threats by the Kyiv regime to strike Moscow on the holiday sacred to all Russians — Victory Day in the Great Patriotic War,” adding that Russia would respond in such a case.

“The Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs calls on the authorities of your country/the leadership of your organization to treat this statement with the utmost seriousness and to ensure the timely evacuation of diplomatic and other mission personnel, as well as citizens, from the city of Kyiv due to the inevitability of a retaliatory strike by the Armed Forces on Kyiv, including against decision-making centers,” the statement said, according to RIA Novosti.

Zakharova stressed that Russia is not acting from a position of aggression, but from a position of an “inevitable response.”

According to her, the EU will not be able to silence the public threats made by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

“We are aware of the position of the collective Western minority toward May 9: they are systematically destroying Soviet memorial heritage, exhuming the remains of Soviet soldiers, and rewriting and distorting history. By arming Ukraine, they are accomplices in the criminal plans of the Kyiv regime,” Zakharova said.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said today that Russia fears the appearance of Ukrainian drones during the Victory Day parade in Moscow on May 9, given that the event will, for the first time in a long period, be held without military equipment.

Russia’s Ministry of Defense warned that Russian troops would take all necessary security measures during the celebrations and that, in the event of an attack, they would launch a massive retaliatory missile strike on central Kyiv.
