One of Vladimir Putin's closest allies has warned European backers of Ukraine, including the UK, not to send troops to eastern Europe as part of a peace deal in a chilling threat. Dmitry Medvedev, who served as President of Russia between 2008 and 2012 and Prime Minister of Russia between 2012 and 2020, and is now Deputy Chairman of the Security Council of Russia, took to X (formerly Twitter) to issue the warning.
"The ruling European dimwits want a war in Europe after all," he said in a post on Saturday (January 10). "It’s been said a thousand times: Russia won’t accept any European or NATO troops in Ukraine, but no, Micron keeps peddling this pathetic b*******. Well, come on then. This is what you’ll get:" He then includes a video in which strikes can be seen in the background of a snow-covered residential area, dated close to midnight on January 8.
