Nor will the leader of Laos fly to Russia.
Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev will not fly to Moscow for events dedicated to the 80th anniversary of the Victory, Russian presidential aide Yuri Ushakov said.
"It was reported that Aliyev will not come, unfortunately. It was explained in such a way that he should take part in internal events dedicated to Heydar Aliyev," he told journalist Alexander Yunashev. May 10 is the birthday of Heydar Aliyev, who died in 2003.
The visit of Lao leader Thongloun Sisoulith to Moscow has also been canceled. He will miss the events due to infection with coronavirus.
The day before Ushakov reported that leaders of 29 states were to arrive in Moscow for May 9. Without Aliyev and Sisulit, their number has been reduced to 27.
