Якби 🇷🇺 імперіалізм мав обличчя, це був би #Медведєв. Маленька людина з великими комплексами, єдина можливість якої привернути до себе увагу та самоствердитися – бризнути отрутою в бік України чи погрожувати світу. Україна була, є й буде. Де буде Д. Медведєв за 2 роки – питання.

Quote from Podoliak: "Ukraine was, is and will be. The question is where Dmitry Medvedev will be in two years."
Details: Podoliak called Medvedev the face of Russian imperialism and "a little man with huge insecurities whose only way of asserting himself is to spout venom towards Ukraine or threaten the world".
Background:
- Earlier, Dmitry Medvedev, deputy chairman of Russia’s Security Council, questioned the future existence of Ukraine, with whom Russia is at war.
- In early June, Medvedev was so frightened by MLRS supplies to Ukraine that he threatened that Russia would fire on Ukraine's decision-making centres, adding that these centres are not in Kyiv.
- In May, Medvedev said that the transfer of weapons to Ukraine would increase the possibility of a transition to a full-fledged nuclear war.
