The 2014 annexation of Crimea was a precursor to Moscow's takeover of four other Ukraine regions in 2022, when Moscow announced portions of Russia, which were considered illegal by the majority countries at the United Nations General Assembly. The return' of those other countries to Russia, according to Putin, was much more serious and tragic than Crimea's. In a three-day election that included voting in portions of Ukraine ruled by Russian forces, the ex-spy obtained over 87 percent of the vote. However, an independent Russian voter monitoring group said that Putin's presidential election was the most fraudulent and corrupt in the country's history.

Has Putin ally Medvedev been DRUNK every time he calls for Armageddon? 'coincide with the date of his wine exports from Italy', a Russian former president's screams on social media.'

www.dailymail.co.uk, March 8, 2024
During his one-off tenure as president from 2008-2012, the close Putin ally, now the Deputy Chairman of Russia's Security Council, presented himself as a liberal reformer. Medvedev, who took a liberal stand when Russian troops marched across the Ukrainian border two years ago, has since stepped backward and became one of the Kremlin's most hawkish and aggressive mouthpieces. The former president's overt rage and support for the war, according to commentators in Russia and beyond, may have been a tactic to ensure his continued prosperity and safety as a member of Putin's inner circle, or perhaps to win over hardliners as Putin's older. However, it appears that the explanation could be much simpler. He's probably inebriated.

In a venomous tirade launched at the US President today, former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev (L) described Joe Biden (R) as "mad and mentally ill." Biden opened his address with a reference to 1941's address to Congress by 32nd US President Franklin D. Roosevelt, who declared that the union was at a turning point in history. Biden also accused Republican President Donald Trump of kowtowing to Russia, and he had a message for Vladimir Putin on Ukraine: 'We will not walk away.' His remarks enraged Medvedev, who accused Biden of attempting to launch World War III and chastised him for comparing himself to Roosevelt. Medvedev, who was portrayed as a liberal modernizer when he served as Russia's president from 2008-2012, now appears as an anti-Western Kremlin hawk.

Russia 'will not be afraid to use NUCLEAR weapons in a war with NATO because it believes the US wouldn't dare respond'

www.dailymail.co.uk, January 23, 2024
'Knowing that the West is casualty- and risk averse, Russia may try to use enough non-strategic nuclear arms (NSNW) to inflict enough harm in preventing its own loss,' the study by the International Institute for Strategic Studies (IISS). [Russia knows] that the US will be unable to cross the nuclear threshold in retribution and can bring an end to the war early. 'The Russian impression of the lack of credible Western will either use nuclear arms or admit casualties in war have fueled Russia's adamant NSNW ideology and doctrine,' it said. According to the report, the only benefit of using such a nuclear weapon would be to escalate a conflict in a controlled manner, "either to discourage the US and NATO from participating or to coerce them to cease speaking in a conflict on Russian terms." All nuclear weapons with a range of up to 3,400 miles are included in the NSNW's lineup, beginning with tactical arms built for use on the battlefield, as opposed to long-range strategic nuclear weapons used by Russia or the US to strike each other's territories.

He went on to warn that Moscow would view any attempt by Britain to deploy a military contingent to Ukraine as a declaration of war against Russia.

If Zelensky retakes Crimea, Putin may use NUCLEAR weapons in Ukraine,' a military expert warns Vladimir will disregard the repercussions of exploding a nuke if he is humiliated

www.dailymail.co.uk, December 3, 2023
EXCLUSIVE: Kevin Ryan, the Army's Space and Missile Defence Chief, said that nuclear war is a 'entirely viable' option for Putin if Ukrainian forces advance on the battlefield and retaken occupied territories such as Crimea. According to Ryan, who was also the Defence Attaché to Russia, Moscow is not just at war with Ukraine, but also with the West - and for this reason Putin is much more likely to see tactical nuclear weapons used as 'prudent deterrence.' "The explosion of a nuclear weapon inside Ukraine may have sparked "overkill" in a war against Ukraine, but it could also be seen as prudent deterrence in a conflict against the West,' Ryan tells MailOnline. The bottom line is that using a nuclear weapon is entirely feasible, and if the alternative is lost, it could be dismissed.' If Ukrainian forces do start to gain traction on the battlefield, Putin and his military leaders would not be concerned with the possibility of irradiating territory inside their occupied territories with tactical nuclear weapons, according to him.
