They were thousands to contemplate the parade.
This Sunday in Russia, took place the great annual parade of the Russian fleet, during which warships sail on the Neva in Saint Petersburg, in front of the eyes of the amazed spectators.
"This parade shows the quality of our fleet and our army, it shows our power, which probably no other country has," says Andrey Bystrov, a St. Petersburg.
In a speech on the sidelines of the demonstration, Vladimir Poutine praised this fleet, which makes it possible to “infallibly defend the homeland and national interests” of the Russians.
"We are able to detect any enemy target underwater, on the surface or in the air and deal a lethal blow if necessary," he also said.
Against a background of strong tensions with the West, Vladimir Poutine has not stopped praising in recent years the new weapons, according to him "invincible", designed by his country.
Among them are the new generation Avangard hypersonic missile, capable of reaching a speed of Mach 27 and changing course and altitude, put into service with the Russian army in December 2019 or the Zircon flying at Mach 7. , successfully tested in July.
Several other weapons such as the Air Force Kinjal hypersonic missile and the Bourevestnik nuclear-powered missile are under development.
