Medvedev and a Few Other Pointers to Trouble
So over the last few days, Dmitry Medvedev came up with a post at Telegram. It’s the kind that reveals the ultimate intent of the Russian Federation in this war. Remember, he is not just a regular Joe at the watering hole screaming to the wind as he downs his vodka. This is the Secretary of the General Security Council of the Russian Federation.
The defeat of the West in the Ukrainian direction is inevitable.
And let their leaders, who have forgotten about their own citizens, shout with each other that they will support the stubs of the Square with weapons and money for as long as it takes. They will train soldiers for the Kyiv meat-packing plant, they will restore the ruins of the dying economy of the Bandera regime. Will maintain insane sanctions against Russia. It won’t help. Why?
For them, this is a strange war in which people who are strangers to them are dying. And although they do not feel sorry for them, the West will never go beyond the fact that it will begin to harm its interests too much. No matter how loudly he laments at his summits and at the UN. Someone else’s war sooner or later becomes boring, costly and irrelevant.
And for us it is a tragedy involving our people. This is an existential conflict. The War for Self-Preservation . Either they or we.
