Kremlin Says Victory Day Parade in Moscow Surely to Take Place, Perhaps Not on 9 May

PETROPAVLOVSK-KAMCHATSKIY, Russia (Sputnik) – Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Saturday that the Victory Day parade in Moscow would take place for sure, however, there was a possibility of postponing it from 9 May to another date due to the coronavirus pandemic.
