Answering the questions of journalists and users of the Russian social network "VKontakte", Medvedev stated that the military assistance provided to Ukraine could lead to "nuclear apocalypse". "And now seriously, is the threat of nuclear conflict? No, it has not grown, it has increased. Every day of supply of foreign weapons is eventually approaching the same nuclear apocalypse," said the Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council.
According to Medvedev, the Kremlin opponents did not see the "degree of determination of Russia" until some moment. "And they were calculated. The consequences were much more complicated than they could be if they signed a document with us in December," the former Russian president said. The Ukrainian Pravda said that Medvedev was talking about the agreement offered by Moscow in December 2021. The document referred to NATO's "non -extension" and "depositing" the Alliance to the 1997 borders.
It should be noted that Dmitry Medvedev is not for the first time threatening the use of nuclear weapons. Thus, on February 27, the Russian expatriate stated that in Moscow are ready to use nuclear weapons in the event of a threat to the existence of the state. In a comment from February 4, Medvedev also said that Russian nuclear missiles could be used in the case of strikes on the Crimean peninsula by Western weapons.
Medvedev also resorted to nuclear threats on January 19, on the eve of the meeting of the contact group on defense of Ukraine at the Air Base in Ramstay. Then the Russian politician stated that the defeat of the Russian Federation in the war would lead to a nuclear war.
Recall that on March 22, during a discussion on "World without DSno: What is next?" The Deputy Foreign Minister of the Russian Federation Sergey Ryabkov reported that the likelihood of nuclear war is now the highest in recent decades. We also wrote that on March 21, Russian President Vladimir Putin stated that the event began to use a "weapon with a nuclear component", referring to the transfer of ammunition to Ukraine with a depleted Uranus for British Tanks Challenger 2.
