Others were Zimbabwe’s Emmerson Mnangagwa and Congo Brazziville’s Denis Sassou Nguesso.


Chinese President Xi Jinping, Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva and Slovakan Prime Minister Robert Fico also attended.

Victory Day, which celebrates the surrender of Nazi Germany that ended World War II, is Russia's most important secular holiday.
