Russian President has invited his U.S. counterpart, along with leaders from many other countries to Moscow in May to attend the 80th anniversary of the end of World War II, which Russians refer to as the "Great Patriotic War."
Chinese President Xi Jinping has already accepted an invitation to take part in the celebrations on May 9 in Moscow. Igor Morgulov, Russia’s ambassador to China also noted that Chinese leader invited Russian President Vladimir Putin in return to attend China’s own Victory Day celebrations, which would be held on 3rd September.
President Putin would be pleased to welcome world leaders, including U.S. President Donald Trump, to Moscow for the celebrations of anniversary of the Soviet victory over Nazi Germany, should they choose to attend, Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov said, according to a report by tass.com.
"This day symbolizes the defeat of Nazism, and unfortunately, this topic is more relevant than ever," Peskov noted. "So, if some countries, particularly major ones, decide to join us in celebrating this victory, we—especially President Putin—will be pleased to welcome them in Moscow."
When asked if the Russian president would be open to seeing the U.S. leader at the event, Peskov responded, "Well, of course."
He emphasized that the day held special significance, given the current tense geopolitical climate and the challenges facing Europe and the world.
As part of events surrounding the May 9 celebrations, an annual military parade is held at the Red Square located in Russia’s capital Moscow, which has also been attended by foreign leaders.
