Former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev said today that the only way for Moscow to finally secure a lasting peace with Ukraine is to push its own border as far as possible.

Medvedev, now vice president of Russia’s Security Council, predicted in a message on social media that Moscow’s “special military operation,” as he called it, would end with a Russian victory and some sort of loose deal.

“We will achieve victory,” Medvedev wrote on Telegram, assuring that the goal is to “push the border threatening the country as far as possible, even if it is the border of Poland.”

The statements about Poland were made while the Polish Prime Minister is in Kiev.

Mateusz Morawiecki traveled to Kiev today in a move to support Ukraine in its fight against Russia, government spokesman Piotr Mueller said on Twitter.

Morawiecki and his Ukrainian counterpart Denis Smychal laid flowers at the Wall of Remembrance in honor of those killed for Ukraine, according to the Polish prime minister’s office.

“One year after the start of Russian hostilities, Prime Minister Morawiecki traveled to Kiev to send a clear and strong message of our continued support for Ukraine’s defense against Russia,” Mueller wrote.

“Immediately after the outbreak of the war, on March 15, we were in Kyiv to ensure that Kyiv will not be left alone,” he added.
