Especially after starting it Russian invasion in Ukrainethe incendiary and frequent extreme statements and characterizations of its former president Russia’s Dmitry Medvedev they have ceased to be news.

Yesterday he demanded that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and his “clique” be “exterminated” in retaliation for the “drone attack on the Kremlin” denounced by Moscow. Just last week he once again mocked Joe Biden, calling him a “desperate grandfather” and implying that they are not mentally well, after the US president announced his intention to run for a second term in the 2024 elections. On the same day he had said that “the world is sick and it is quite possible that it is on the brink of a new world war”, invoking Stalin, calling for an increase in arms production. In mid-March, he called the arrest warrant issued by the International Criminal Court against Putin for alleged war crimes allegedly committed in Ukraine “paper”. In the midst of all this, the 57-year-old Medvedev speaks very often about the risk of a nuclear catastrophe.

Today, while the Kremlin turned its attention to the US for this attack on the Kremlin, without providing evidence to support its accusation, the second in command of the Russian Security Council had new statements to add to his “repertoire”.

After the Kremlin hardliner said today that the drone attack on the Kremlin, in an attempt to assassinate Russian President Vladimir Putin, according to Moscow’s version, would certainly escalate the war with Ukraine, it had new features. Target; The head of European diplomacy, Josep Borrell, an “insolent swagger”, according to Medvedev. Also: the “fat heads” of Brussels.

Reason or reason for these comments? Borel’s plea that Russia not use the attack on the Kremlin as an excuse to escalate the war.

“Borrell opposed the use of the attack on the Kremlin for a possible further escalation of the conflict. An insolent brat. This is exactly what will lead to the escalation of the conflict, a terrorist attack carried out by the Kiev authorities, directed by the US, which had the approval of the EU leadership,” Medvedev tweeted.

“That’s exactly what Washington and many bigots in Brussels want,” he added.

Ukrainian President Zelensky and other Ukrainian officials have denied any involvement by Kiev in the attack.
