“If a third world war breaks out, alas, it will not be with tanks or even with fighter jets.” Then everything will surely be in pieces.” With his Telegram post today, the Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council Dmitry Medvedev pulls out the nuclear card again – as happens every time there is talk of new military aid from Western countries to Kyiv.
His post comes after and Germany has given the green light for the supply of Leopard 2 tanks for the Ukrainian forces, but also against the background of rumors of a possible transfer of Western fighter jets in Ukraine. The Minister of Foreign Affairs, Dmytro Kuleba, has already stated that international partners have already started work on the issue of the transfer of Ukraine’s F-16 fighter jets.
“If a third world war breaks out, it won’t be with tanks or even fighter jets, alas. Then everything will surely be destroyed,” Medvedev wrote on his channel.
He commented in particular on the words of Italian Defense Minister Guido Crosetto, who previously stated that World War III would begin if Russian tanks appeared in Kyiv and on the borders of Europeand that the weapons sent to Ukraine are intended to stop the escalation.
“A certain defense minister of Italy, a rare Czech, called supplying Kyiv with weapons and armored vehicles a way to achieve peace and prevent World War III.”
Medvedev is also outraged that the neighbors from “the evil mist kingdom with an empire complex” have gone even further by saying that all available NATO weapons should be handed over to Ukraine. According to them (Ukrainians, ed.) hundreds of tanks and fighter jets will save the world from Russia and prevent World War III , marvels Medvedev.
“Defending Ukraine, which no one in Europe wants, will not save the Westernized Old World from retaliation. The third world war, if it starts, will not be fought with tanks and airplanes, and then the whole world will be destroyed,” stressed Medvedev.
