Russia canceled this year for security reasons the march of the Immortal Regiment, which is traditionally held on Red Square on May 9 after the military parade for the anniversary of the victory over the Nazis.
"When dealing with a state that actually sponsors terrorism, it is better to take precautions," Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said, referring to Ukraine.
