Canada: Moscow's parade inspires indifference and scepticism — Putin preaching to an empty hall

Dominant angle identified — does not reflect unanimity of this country’s media

ANALYSIS

Canada: National Post and the Globe and Mail focus on the domestic Russian reception of the parade. Muscovites responded with notable indifference: stands were partially empty, enthusiasm absent. The Globe and Mail had already headlined before the parade that the 'Scaled-back Victory Day parade is a sign of Putin's growing paranoia.' Canada, aligned with Western sanctions and militarily supporting Ukraine, sees nothing in Putin's speech but internal legitimisation rhetoric directed at a population exhausted by over four years of war.
