Peskov commented on the incident with a veteran, which was pushed away by Putin's guard

Press Secretary of the President of the Russian Federation Dmitry Peskov in a commentary on the Radio station "Moscow Says" called an unpleasant incident with a veteran of the Great Patriotic War on Red Square, which was harshly pushed by the guard of Vladimir Putin.

When Putin from Red Square went to the ceremony of laying wreaths to the grave of an unknown soldier near the Kremlin wall, the security, ensuring the safety of the president, did not allow the head of state to come closer to the head of state. An elderly man who descended from the rostrum after the parade wanted to go to the Alexander Garden next to Putin. The president, paying attention to this situation, went to the veteran and invited him to the ceremony of laying wreaths.

“This, of course, was an unintentional accident. The president has already drew attention to the need to exclude such situations from now on,” Peskov said. He noted that the president, noticing what happened, shook his hand to the veteran and invited him to lay flowers. Then they continued their path together.
