Medvedev: arms supplies to Ukraine will not save Western countries from retribution

Deputy Chairman of the Security Council of Russia Dmitry Medvedev in his Telegram channel expressed the opinion that the supply of weapons to Ukraine by Western countries will not save “from retaliation.”

He noted that Italian Defense Minister Guido Crosetto, his British counterpart Ben Wallace, and others in their statements say that arms supplies to Ukraine will prevent “Russian expansion” and “world war.” “Firstly, the defense of Ukraine, which no one needs in Europe, will not save the decrepit Old World from retribution, if something happens. Secondly, if the third world war starts, then, alas, it will not be on tanks and not even on fighters. Then, for sure, everything is in ruins, ”Medvedev wrote.

On January 27, Crosetto, following a meeting with French Defense Minister Sebastian Lecornu, said that “if Russian tanks come to Kyiv, the Third World War will break out.” About it wrote Raynews edition.

“There are no number of fools in the power structures of Europe. Some Minister of Defense of some Italy called the supply of armored vehicles and other weapons to Ukraine as the prevention of a third world war. A rare eccentric with the letter “m,” commented Crozetto Medvedev on this statement.

About Wallace’s words that NATO should transfer to Ukraine all the weapons that the Alliance has, the deputy chairman of the Russian Security Council wrote that “what to expect from an entrepreneur with an incomplete higher education and his stupid neighbors.”
