BBC World Service - Newsday, Putin speech expected soon in Red Square parade

Russia marks its 1945 victory over Nazi Germany in a big parade on the streets of Moscow

Today Russia marks its 1945 victory over Nazi Germany in a big military parade on the streets of Moscow.

President Putin is due to address his victory parade as he seeks to rally support for his war against Ukraine - we'll be looking ahead to what he's to say and why this day is considered so important.

We'll also be speaking to one of Russia's most famous novelists, sci-fi writer Dmitry Glukhovsky, to get his view on how the Russian leader is changing Russian society and separating it from the rest of the world. 

And we'll be reporting on how the Taliban in Afghanistan have ordered all women to veil their faces when in public.
