Quick Summary
- China held a military parade showcasing advanced weaponry and troops, attended by leaders from countries including Russia, North Korea and Iran.
Xi Jinping presented China as a global power and the standard-bearer of a new global order, in a challenge to the U.S.
The parade marked China’s WWII victory anniversary amid economic challenges and military leadership concerns.
BEIJING—China flexed its growing military power and its deepening ties to Washington’s adversaries with an extravagant parade that cast leader Xi Jinping as the standard-bearer of a new global order.
The armed-forces spectacle in Beijing on Wednesday, marking the 80th anniversary of China’s victory in World War II, projected the vision of a great power that Xi wants to present to the world—and a warning to the U.S. and Europe not to challenge it.
Amplifying the anti-Western optics was the attendance of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and Russia’s Vladimir Putin, who walked out to the viewing rostrum and watched the procession on either side of the Chinese leader.

The Gate of Heavenly Peace in Beijing will be anything but peaceful on September 3rd, when Xi Jinping, Kim Jong Un, Vladimir Putin and others gather to celebrate the end of the second world war. Chinese troops will march in a parade designed to boost national pride and flex military muscles. Perhaps most importantly the parade will showcase China’s newest warfighting equipment to potential buyers and potential adversaries.
The world’s military planners are spending big on new weapons. The war in Ukraine, threats of abandonment by America and worries that China might invade Taiwan have countries scrambling to fill stockpiles, harden supply chains and secure flows of munitions. There is a voracious appetite for tanks, artillery, fighter jets and drones. On August 31st Britain announced a £10bn ($13.5bn) deal to supply Norway with five anti-submarine frigates. Yet not all of this is rewarding traditional exporters in America, Europe and Russia. Instead, two ambitious middle powers, South Korea and Turkey, are capitalising on the boom.
