It is confirmed that China will hold a military parade this year to commemorate the 70th anniversary of the victory in the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, a Foreign Ministry spokeswoman said Monday evening.
Qiu Yuanping, director of the Overseas Chinese Affairs Office of the State Council of China, said veterans who had been in the war will be invited in different ways. The veterans could be soldiers who live in China or overseas, in different parties, and include veterans themselves and their children.
Other events that will also mark the 70th anniversary of the victory in the World Anti-Fascist War include a rally, a reception and an evening gala in Beijing, which will be attended by President Xi Jinping and other Chinese leaders, the spokeswoman Hua Chunying said.
