Putin spent 1.32 million to insure good weather for the 70th anniversary of the end of World War II and his 15th anniversary as Russia's head of state. They use a chemical cocktail to seed the clouds causing the rain to fall before it hits Moscow and deny it is in any way harmful to the environment. It seems to me in a world where the economy isn't the healthiest that it is an incredible amount of money to spend just to guarantee pleasant weather for a parade,which for the record barely any world leaders are attending due to Russia's actions in the Ukraine. The parade will also showcase their brand new Armata tanks and other military hardware. I guess parades aren't about happiness and fun things in Putin's Russia.
