Medvedev flexes military muscle in Moscow streets
Friday, May 09, 2008
Russia has sent the world a reminder that it's still a serious military force.
New President Dmitry Medvedev has led a parade of tanks and missile launchers through Moscow for the first time since the collapse of the USSR.
It's officially to mark the defeat of Nazi Germany in 1945.
But observers said today the Kremlin's using the event to show-off Russia's military hardware.
