Russian presidential aide Yuri Ushakov told journalists on Monday that Moscow had sent an invitation to Obama to attend the celebrations devoted to the 70th anniversary of the Victory in World War II.

Earlier in the day, Ushakov said that North Korean leader Kim Jong Un may accept Russia's invitation to attend the annual Victory Parade in Moscow.

Russia commemorates Victory Day on May 9, whereas it is celebrated on the 8th of May in Europe and America. In 2015, military parades will be held in 26 Russian cities to mark the 70th anniversary of the Victory over the Nazis in World War II. About 14,000 members of the Russian armed forces, 194 tanks and 150 planes and helicopters are expected to participate in the Victory Parade on Red Square in Moscow next year.
