Will Windows 7 work on an M1 Mac with Parallels 16.5?

I got excited when I saw the news about 16.5 compatibility with M1 Macs, and I very nearly ordered myself a new MacBook Pro on the strength of that news.
But then I saw an article that said that you need a special version of Windows to run on M1...
The reason I use Parallels is because of one particular program that will not work under Windows 10, so am I correct in thinking that I need to put that MacBook Pro order on hold?
 
Thanks Mmika.
Do we know whether Parallels will be working on a version that will allow any Guest OS to work on M1, like they do on Intel machines?
 
Oh, right. Thanks for that Michael.
Big decisions to be made in the future then... changing back to running a PC, or giving up the program that I use... Either way, I will not be requiring Parallels.
