world war.»Former Russian President and current Deputy Chairman of the Security Council Dmitry Medvedev said Wednesday that the impact of a projectile on Polish territory and accusations against Moscow show that "the West is approaching a world war".
"The incident with Ukraine's alleged 'missile attack' on a Polish farm proves only one thing: by launching a hybrid war against Russia, the West is approaching a world war," Medvedev said via a brief message on his account on the social network Twitter.
Following the incident on Polish territory, the Russian Defense Ministry called the accusations of its involvement a "deliberate provocation". It also indicated that the Army has not carried out attacks on targets near the border between Poland and Ukraine, while stressing that the photographs of the remains of missiles show that it is not the weaponry used by Russia.
On the other hand, the President of Ukraine, Volodimir Zelenski, called for "action" in response to the "Russian missile attack" on Poland, a territory of the Atlantic Alliance, which puts "collective security" on alert.

It just feels like a matter of time until NATO arrives in the Ukraine. Russia can't prevent it now. The war will end, Ukraine will join NATO, and NATO will enter the Ukraine.

(7,255 posts)He once held a modicum of international regard as Putin's Mini Me, whose main appeal was that he wasn't Putin, when Russia's laws meant that Putin couldn't hold more than two terms as president. Recent changes mean that Putin could be president until 2036 if he lives that long and he stays clear of high windows and untested food, drink and air.
Now Medvedev's just part of the criminal, revolting, fascist backwash that pollutes Russia's airwaves, as ably and comprehensively documented in their own revolting words by Julia Davis on Twitter: https://twitter.com/JuliaDavisNews

Germany halts Nord Stream 2 and Russia responds with a stark warning:
Dmitry Medvedev tweeted: "Welcome to the brave new world where Europeans are very soon going to pay 2,000 for 1,000 cubic meters of natural gas."

That ... didn't quite work out that way. Never mind. Onward and upward.

Meanwhile in Russia, state TV propagandists are brainstorming about cultivating relations with the likes of Elon Musk and Tulsi Gabbard, in order to further Russia's interests through "private diplomacy." Host Vladimir Solovyov proposes Dmitry Medvedev as the intermediary.
