War in Ukraine, Medvedev threat: nuclear strike will be pre-emptive

On nuclear weapons, the tone is raised between Russia and NATO countries. “The West fails to understand that the confrontation between Russia and the NATO countries may at some point, for example if nuclear weapons are supplied to Ukraine, lead to a pre-emptive nuclear strike,” said the deputy chairman of the Council of National Security Dmitry Medvedev talking to reporters during a visit to Vietnam. “There are irreversible laws of war. With regard to the supply of nuclear weapons to Ukraine, a preemptive strike will have to be carried out, ”he explained. There will be an attack “if certain circumstances occur”. Ukraine will receive aircraft and “maybe even nuclear weapons. But that means a missile with a nuclear warhead will fly over them.”

Then Medvedev spoke about the prospects and duration of the conflict in Ukraine. “This conflict could last a long time, maybe decades. It’s a new reality, new living conditions.” This was stated by the Deputy Chairman of the Security Council of Russia, Dmitry Medvedev, during a visit to Vietnam, as reported by the Tass agency. Medvedev is convinced that if the current Ukrainian government remain in office “there will be, say, 3 years of truce, 2 of conflict and then everything will start again – he concluded – The very essence of the neo-Nazi regime in Kiev must be eliminated “.
