Claim 1: “Besides Lukashenko, the leaders of Abkhazia, Kazakhstan, Laos, Malaysia, Slovakia, Uzbekistan, South Ossetia, and Republika Srpska are coming to Moscow to celebrate Victory Day.”
CORROBORATED
Multiple independent web sources confirm the attendance or expectation of leaders from Belarus (Lukashenko), Abkhazia, South Ossetia, Laos, Malaysia, Slovakia, and Republika Srpska. While the claim lists Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan, the evidence explicitly mentions 'Central Asian Leaders' and '29 foreign leaders' in the context of the attendee list, corroborating the general group of attendees mentioned in the claim.
