Putin Ally Medvedev Says ‘Preemptive Strikes’ Could Be Russia’s Answer on Western Europe if It Escalates Ukraine War
RUSSIA, JUL 17 – Medvedev claims the West is waging a full-scale proxy war against Russia and warns Moscow must be ready to launch preemptive strikes if provoked, citing nuclear power status.
- On July 17, Dmitry Medvedev said, `Moscow should respond in full and if necessary launch pre-emptive strikes` to Western escalation, urging Russia to act if threatened.
- Medvedev dismissed attack claims as rubbish, accusing the West of centuries-long undermining and trying to destroy the “historical anomaly,” according to TASS.
- Russia and the US together hold about 87% of global nuclear weapons, while Russia's Medvedev called for pre-emptive strikes against the West, as the Federation of American Scientists reported.
- Amid ongoing sanctions threats, Peskov said Medvedev's concerns about a 'confrontational' Europe were justified, while Russia analyzes Trump's threat of 100% secondary sanctions.
- Reuters reported on Tuesday that Vladimir Putin intends to keep fighting until the West meets his terms, and that his territorial demands may widen as forces advance.
