Russia's Medvedev says more U.S. weapons supplies mean 'all of Ukraine will burn'

"All of Ukraine that remains under Kyiv's rule will burn," journalist Nadana Fridrikhson quoted former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev as saying in a written interview with her.

Former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev has said the supply of more advanced U.S. weaponry to Ukraine will only trigger more retaliatory strikes from Russia, up to the extent of Russia's nuclear doctrine.

"All of Ukraine that remains under Kyiv's rule will burn," journalist Nadana Fridrikhson quoted him as saying in a written interview with her.

Fridrikhson asked Medvedev, who as deputy chairman of the Security Council has become one of Russia's most hawkish pro-war figures since its invasion of Ukraine, whether the use of longer-range weapons might force Russia to negotiate with Kyiv.

"The result will be just the opposite," Medvedev replied, in comments that Fridrikhson posted on her Telegram channel.

"Only moral freaks, of which there are enough both in the White House and in the Capitol, can argue like that."

The Pentagon said on Friday that a new rocket that would double Ukraine's strike range was included in a $2.175 billion U.S. military aid package.

With the first anniversary of the invasion approaching on Feb. 24, Russian forces have been on the back foot for the last eight months, and do not fully control any of the four Ukrainian provinces that Moscow has unilaterally declared part of Russia.

President Vladimir Putin casts Russia's campaign in Ukraine as an existential defence against an aggressive West and has, like Medvedev, several times brandished the threat of a nuclear response, saying Russia will use all available means to protect itself and its people.

Asked what would happen if the weapons that Washington has promised Ukraine were to strike Crimea - which Russia seized from Ukraine in 2014 - or deep into Russia, Medvedev said Putin had addressed the matter clearly.

"We don't set ourselves any limits and, depending on the nature of the threats, we're ready to use all types of weapons. In accordance with our doctrinal documents, including the Fundamentals of Nuclear Deterrence," he said. "I can assure you that the answer will be quick, tough and convincing."

Russia's nuclear doctrine allows for a nuclear strike after "aggression against the Russian Federation with conventional weapons when the very existence of the state is threatened".

But one thing is already crystal clear: While the war is not yet over, Ukraine has lost. Grasping that, we must first bring the fighting quickly to an end. Then we must mourn the dead. And, finally, we must get on with the task of rebuilding the country that Vladimir Putin has destroyed.

Putin is just too smart for the USA and NATO. If this war continues Ukraine will be obliterated while the USA and co will be left to lick their wounds. I know Zelenski and his biz partners would like it to run for a long time but Putin will pull the rug off their feet when he is ready to do so.

Once or twice a week we struck Iranian targets there,” he (Bennet) said.

Russia, which is a superpower has S-300 missiles stationed there that can take Israel’s aerial sorties in the Syrian skies, he said.

“If they press a button Israeli pilots will be downed and who will help rescue them? Will [US President Joe] Biden do it or Zelensky?” he asked noting that it would be Israel’s problem to deal with the fallout.

If there are no consequences from the Russians for US/Ukraine, they probably would have given Kiev nukes by now. Consequences in itself is a deterrent for something worse.

Russia is definitely not an autocratic state. that depends on your definition. Putin was voted for every time he stepped forward for an election. He has brought prosperity to Russia and made the country strong again. The Western countries developed organically over the years with their own turbulence and changes to grow their institutions. They should allow emerging economies to find their feet also without interference. Sometimes, democracy is not the best form of governance for a state. For instance, I dare you to give me any prosperous or powerful middle eastern democracy. That is because their natural culture and religion is not in line with democracy. Even places like Dubai are autocratic and westerners keep supporting them and nobody is making noise about it. The moment a country is against USA, it suddenly becomes a dictatorship. I refuse to accept that we must adopt the western mode of democracy to become prosperous. China is prospering and it is operating its own natural style. That self-pride is what will eventually kill the western world. The world is no more revolving around their stupid rules.
