Russia, shock threat from Medvedev: “Ukraine will disappear, nobody needs it”

A missile fired from Ukraine towards Crimea was shot down over Feodosia, the head of the Russian-annexed Black Sea peninsula, Serghei Aksenov, said on Telegram. The rocket debris landed in an inhabited area, but there were no casualties or damage, added Oleg Kryuchkov, an adviser to Aksenov. Ukrainian authorities have repeatedly stated that they intend to attack Crimea to bring it back under Kiev’s control. Russia, for its part, has warned that Crimea is a red line. The vice-president of the Security Council of Russia, Dmitry Medvedev, explained that a possible attack in this direction would mean an escalation of the war, followed by an “inevitable retaliation” with the use of any type of weapon.

“Nobody is interested in Ukraine and it will disappear” are the words of the former Russian president in a message published on the Russian social network VKontakte and taken up by the international press, in which he relaunches the accusations against “the Nazi regime in Kiev” under which they live “millions of compatriots”. As for the Ukrainians themselves, according to Medvedev, just over 20 of the 45 million people still remain in the country and “are forced to live in constant anxiety and fear.” “No one on the planet needs a Ukraine like that. That is why it will cease to exist», he concluded, noting that neither Europe, nor the United States, nor Africa and Latin America, nor Asia, nor Russia need a post-Soviet republic. A terrible threat.
