Putin's "real war" speech - what did he actually mean?

Russia’s annual Victory Day parade, usually commemorating the surrender of Nazi Germany in the Second World War, is a more muted affair this year. There’s no air display, fewer troops parading through Red Square, and no Immortal Regiment march. <br /><br />The Kremlin says this was a precautionary measure, citing security concerns, and Vladimir Putin told crowds in Red Square that "a real war has again been unleashed" against Russia, in reference to the Ukraine war which Moscow sees as a conflict against the West. <br /><br />On the Sky News Daily podcast, Niall Paterson is joined by our international affairs editor Dominic Waghorn and security and defence analyst Professor Michael Clarke to unpick Russia’s Victory Day parade and the display of Russia's military might compared against the backdrop of their weakened position in the Ukraine war. <br /><br />Producer: Soila Apparicio <br />Promotions Producer: David Chipakupaku <br />Editor: Philly Beaumont
