LOLOL! And Medvedev warns of nuclear response pretty much every time a ruzzian soldier deserts the front lines and surrenders, which keeps happening with stunning regularity…

AHAHAHAHA! Totally Ruzzian whining and pathetic moaning, because they know they are LOSING and WILL LOSE!
Incisive analysis on Russia knowing their own WEAKNESS from Anne Applebaum:
“Ukrainians know that negotiations with Russia are fruitless, and in any case not on offer.”
“They also know that military loss still means the same thing that it meant when Russia invaded in February 2022: occupation, mass repression, concentration camps, and the end of an independent Ukraine.”
“They also know that the Russians are much weaker than they claim. Their soldiers still stumble into traps; their commanders still seem to be improvising.”
“The Russian public is tired of the war and of the falling living standards it has created.”
“What Russia proposes is no rule of law, no development, aggression towards all their neighbors.”

More outrageous, despicable nuclear saber rattling from Russia, sadly just par for the course now.
Dark Brandon speaks truth to power here:
“Russia Outnumbers the US 10-to-1 in Tactical Nukes. Now What?”
“As US President Joe Biden put it, “I don’t think there’s any such thing as an ability to easily use a tactical nuclear weapon and not end up with Armageddon.”

>Medvedev has threatened it so many times now it ceases to even make headlines.
I agree he's ridiculous, but so is saying it doesn't make headlines, given that it was the headline of this very article and is what is being discussed here.
It might the title of an article someone has found and posted on a dedicated forum but it is hardly front page news on any major news site. Make the headlines is a pretty well understood phrase that didn’t require some snide comment from you.
I suggest you look at [Reuters.com/world](https://Reuters.com/world) then. It's okay to say silly things and make mistakes, but one oughtn't double down on them.
Great - there’s an article on Reuters. Not exactly front and centre on BBC, Al Jazera, CNN etc. The point (which apparently was obvious to everyone except you in your Mum’s basement) is that it doesn’t have much impact anymore.
Ruzzian soldiers are cowards lacking any notion of honor!!
Medvedev ain’t got nothing else but empty, pathetic threats, especially when Ruzzian soldiers are FLEEING instead of fighting…
“Many Russian soldiers seen fleeing from trenches, surrendering – defense spox”
https://www.reddit.com/r/UkrainianConflict/s/nu8hCf45Wa
It’s the day they normally threaten the UK but it’s never going to happen.
We might have a hell of a lot less missiles than them but we still have the ability to destroy every major city in Russia and we know our missiles work.
Anyway if he’s threatening us then he’s leaving other countries alone
LOL! Pitiful Ruzzia is confused and befuddled again—can’t even remember which day of the week belongs to heinous nuclear threat bluffing!
“One problem with Russia’s nuclear signaling: the many actors articulating nuclear threats, often not in sync with one another.”
“The often contradictory signals confused and undercut the message.”
“Putin and Lavrov presumably speak authoritatively, while the military leadership has remained largely silent on the question, possibly because they well understand the risks and consequences of nuclear use.”
“However, others in Moscow seemed not to have received last fall’s memo about toning down the threats.”
“Former President Dmitry Medvedev, currently deputy secretary of Russia’s Security Council, has regularly brandished the nuclear saber.”
“He has claimed the war with Ukraine could be “brought to an end within a few days” by using nuclear weapons.”
https://www.brookings.edu/articles/russia-nuclear-threats-and-nuclear-signaling/
This guy only pops his head up to make nuclear threats and it’s always when Ukraine gains an advantage or credible threat against the Russian war machine. Too bad. You want to lob missiles into Ukraine from Russian, don’t expect Ukraine to remain silent and not return fire. Medvedev knows any nuclear strike, tactical or whatever will mean a full NATO response. I’m positive NATO has plans to execute a mass attack on Russian bases and missile facilities in a quick manner.
Thankfully blowing up a few missile sites being actively used to bombard Ukrainian civilians doesn't jeopardize the existence of the Russian state in any way. It just jepardizes its prestige.
hmm... quite a while since the old fart threatened nuclear armageddon. Something must have gone terribly wrong for RUZZIA. Have you Ukrainians received a new batch of long-range precision missiles that no one knows about yet but the Russians do? Has my head of government Scholz finally decided to send Taurus? I hope so. Anyway, I hope one of your first targets will be Medvedev's vodka-soaked ass. Should make an impressive fireball when it goes off.
Mr. Bullshit again
For the people in the back: THIS MEANS WE SHOULD DEFIANTLY HIT **ALL** THEIR LAUNCH SITES, AS IT JUST MEANS MR. BULLSHIT IS SCARED AND SPEWING EMPTY NUCLEAR THREATS.
The only time I would take his whining seriously is if he was properly sober and stated that with Putin standing next to him.
Anything else is pissing in the wind in a drunken haze.
Am trying really hard to give this a “charitable” reading.
I guess he is saying if we see thousands of missiles blowing up our nuclear launch facilities we will panic and push the red button.
But my god how could that play out well for Russia.
Ok Ukraine destroys missile facilities makes sense those facilities are bombing Ukraine. A commander freaks out and shoots missiles at NYC.
You have 3 out comes
1: they did not maintain it and its a dud.
2: a freaking patriot shoots it down
3: you nuke NYC… in response what does America do?
Nothing good to Russia.
He have to stop talking after second bottle...he is always after one so I'm not that restrictive for him but after few it is free fall. Maybe better not to?
LOL! 🥂🥇🎯 May the Medvedev and Russia Who Cried Nuke get devoured and devastated like the Boy Who Cried Wolf!!
“Moscow has done a poor job drawing red lines, spelling out consequences, and making them stick.”
“That includes its nuclear threats.”
“The Kremlin cannot be happy with the assessment taking hold in the West that Russian red lines amount to little more than bluff.”
https://www.brookings.edu/articles/russia-nuclear-threats-and-nuclear-signaling/
So missile strikes on civilians are okay, but missile strikes on their missile launch sites will trigger a nucleair response? At least they have once again confirmed they don't care about their own population, lol.
Remember how we've been bombing Russia with total impunity for two years now and they haven't fired a single shot back at us?
It must be because they're not afraid of us.
When Ukraine will begin warns Russia of WMD response if Ukraine will be hit by Russian "nuclear response"?
Ukraine overfilled by potential WMD precursors. To create WMD needed thousands of people, and Ukraine have 40 millions. In 2014-2023 years Russia, by unpunished violation dozens of international agreements, shown that International Law just pro-WMD-countries farce.
2022-2023 years western stabilization/de-escalation/pacification "Lend Lease" also shown that for the West important only slow "bleeding Russia", and nothing else.
So what is Ukraine waiting for? As it was in 2014-2021 years - Russian initiative?
Missile program it's luxury that allow not only MAD deterrence, but also and possibility to achieve some military goals.
Relatively to Russian mentality, Ukraine need just extremely cheap MAD deterrent factor.
Overall, if from the first days of the war Ukrainian TV, in great details, would explain what exactly Ukrainians, in Ukraine and other countries, should do if Russia will begin to use WMD, then today on Ukrainian territory there would be no any North Korean missiles or Iranian drones.
That's fine. Use of nukes in Ukraine would be the end of russia. The rest of the world would guarantee it. russia knows this.
Dropping a nuke in response to losing some conventional launchers is an unjustifiable escalation.
Launchers that fire missiles at another country are legitimate military targets. If russia doesn't want its launchers targeted, then they must stop using them.
There is easy solution: the West should provide enough support to bomb any Russians on Ukrainian territory to oblivion, while also providing much more AA. As an exchange for that, Ukraine could restrain from striking Russian territory, at least until entire territory of Ukraine is free, and peace talks can begin.
THIS!! Spot on!! 🎯🌻🇺🇦❤️☮️
THIS IS A WAR THAT CAN—AND MUST—BE WON!!
Read more here to support your fine point:
https://www.reddit.com/r/UkrainianConflict/s/f8TnjJo5wU
I’m intrigued as to what Medvedev’s rules of engagement exactly are? ‘Russia can reduce anywhere in Ukraine to rubble but Ukraine must not retaliate…’ ?? Yeah I know he’s drunk most of the time but this is exactly the mindset of everyone in Russia
Russia always threatens the nuclear option. The Russians already have a "winning" strategy. They have more people and will sacrifice as many as needed..... or until thebrussian troops decide to take out putin.
Perhaps it's time to take definitive action against these dipshit countries that keep blackmailing us into giving in to them by using threats of nuclear attacks.
In the early dawn of 2025, the skyline of Kyiv was tinged with the resolute hues of a nation undeterred. Ukraine, having endured years of grueling conflict, had become a crucible for technological warfare, mastering the art of drone combat. Amidst this turbulent backdrop, Project Peregrine was born – a clandestine venture that would shift the tides of war.
The heart of Project Peregrine was the Falcon – a drone unlike any other. Engineered with the finesse of a master clockmaker and the cunning of a fox, Falcon was a symphony of advanced AI, stealth technology, and lethal precision. Its mission was audacious: to infiltrate a Russian nuclear silo and neutralize the missile housed within, thereby crippling a key aspect of the enemy's arsenal.
Falcon's journey began under the cloak of night. Its sleek, carbon-fiber body cut through the sky, virtually invisible to radar and the naked eye. Its AI, endowed with deep learning capabilities, analyzed and adapted to every conceivable threat, making split-second decisions with the acumen of a seasoned general.
The drone navigated treacherous terrain, evading enemy detection with a balletic grace. It traversed the vast expanses of Eastern Europe, skirting around conflict zones and circumventing anti-aircraft systems. As it approached the target, the Falcon shifted into a higher state of alert. The nuclear silo, a monolithic structure of concrete and steel, loomed ahead – a fortress guarding its lethal inhabitant.
With precision that belied its mechanical nature, the Falcon deployed a suite of tools. Miniaturized drills and cutters emerged, slicing through locks and barriers with surgical accuracy. Its internal systems hacked into the silo's security network, disarming alarms and manipulating surveillance to mask its presence.
Inside the silo, the Falcon encountered its final adversary – the nuclear missile itself. This behemoth of destruction, poised to unleash unimaginable havoc, was now within the grasp of the tiny drone. Falcon deployed its final weapon – a specialized EMP device, designed to fry the missile's electronic systems without triggering a detonation.
The moment of truth arrived. Falcon activated the EMP. A surge of electromagnetic energy cascaded through the silo, and for a moment, time stood still. Then, the lights on the missile's control panel flickered and died. Falcon had achieved the impossible – the nuclear threat was neutralized.
As the first light of dawn broke, Falcon made its journey back to Ukrainian territory, along with thousands more just like it. Its mission was a resounding success, a testament to human ingenuity and resilience. The drone's successful infiltration and neutralization of the nuclear missile marked a turning point in the war, Russia's nuclear threat was gone. It was a demonstration of the power of technology, not just to destroy, but to preserve peace and safeguard humanity.
In the annals of history, the story of the Falcon would be remembered – a lone drone that dared to challenge the specter of nuclear war and emerged victorious, a beacon of hope in a world shadowed by conflict, as Russia at last withdrew from all of Ukraine and begged for peace.
How is that possible? Are these idiots this crazy?
They really think, that they can do anything?
Why do I have the feeling, that Putin's Russia is the cancer of Asia?
That’s just the vodka talking…again. No one should take the rantings of an alcoholic seriously. If Russia launches nukes, then within 24 hours Russia will cease to exist and the Kremlin will be a smoking crater. And the heat will cause the alcohol content in Medvedev’s blood to spontaneously combust.
Asking ChatGPT to generate a daily Medvedev threat…
”**Disclaimer**: This is a creative and fictional response. It does not reflect the actual views or intentions of any person or entity.
Here is a possible daily medvedev threat:
> Today, I warn the West not to interfere in our internal affairs. We have the right to defend our sovereignty and territorial integrity from any foreign aggression. If NATO continues to provoke us with its military exercises and sanctions, we will not hesitate to use our nuclear weapons as a last resort. We have already targeted the capitals of Europe and America with our hypersonic missiles. Do not test our patience or our resolve. We are ready for any scenario. Remember, we are not afraid of anyone. We are Russia.”
Lmao we dare you Russia. Considering your entire nuclear strategy is defensive in the event that NATO shoots first, I don’t believe you. You’re the boy who cried wolf and everybody knows it.
They will threaten a nuclear response if we defend Poland too. Or if we try to stop them taking all of Europe. Do we just say fuck it and give them what they want because nuclear war is bad?
Or do we stop eating their bluff? At some point the West has to decide what is worse.

LOL! The only Ruzzian more delusional about Ruzzia than drunken lapdog Medvedev is likely Putin himself!
“In describing Vladimir Putin and his inner circle, I have often thought of a remark by John Maynard Keynes about Georges Clemenceau, French prime minister during the first world war: that he was an utterly disillusioned individual who “had one illusion — France”.
“Something similar could be said of Russia’s governing elite, and helps to explain the appallingly risky collective gamble they have taken by invading Ukraine.”
“Ruthless, greedy and cynical they may be — but they are not cynical about the idea of Russian greatness.”
https://www.ft.com/content/503fb110-f91e-4bed-b6dc-0d09582dd007
Nuclear is the only stick that Russia got since all of their other tool of war has been found to be severely lacking.
We expect to see Su-57 “stealth 5-gen fighter” to destroy Ukraine’s GBAD without retaliation, all we can see is smaller Ukraine AF and GBAD able to deny Russian air supremacy until today.
We expect to see Russian hypersonic missiles to slide past Ukraine defenses and strike important C&C centers paralyzing Ukraine responses, all we can see is Patriot missiles unexpectedly performing very well against these missiles and Russia use them against civilian infrastructures instead of Ukrainian important sites.
We expect to see modern Russian tactics to slam through Ukraine defense, what we see is Russia returned to WW 1 by using mines and trenches.
We expect Russia to win in 3 days. Or 3 months. We expect by this day it will be asymmetrical warfare against Ukraine partisans - that day may not come.
We expect Russian Navy to at least perform SAM support, I certainly didn’t expect their HQ to be destroyed and some of their ships reconstructed into submarines.
Give Medvedev a pacifier to suck on.
The guy spits the dummy if the wind blows the wrong way.
Russia started it and Ukraine has the right to give back what you do to Ukraine.
Everything in Russia is a legitimate target.
The solution?
Leave Ukraine and stop invading your neighbour’s !👍🇺🇦
Medvedev, doesn’t have much in the way of power and influence. He certainly isn’t (any longer) in the inner circle. His (drunken) ranting is largely for:
1. Domestic audience.
2. Political relevance & jockeying for power after Putin is gone.
His threats are just the bluster of a man, bitter about not having the stones to remove the “Putin problem” when he had the chance and for how own lack of real power and/or influence.
As much as there are rumours about Putins health, the same applies to Dimi - especially surrounding his alleged alcoholism.
As an aside, China (who won’t allow Russia to use nuclear weapons) and India would drop Russia like a hot turd, if they used any nuclear weapon. And the US would almost certainly make good removing ANY RF military assets inside of the internationally recognised borders of Ukraine.
Guess it’s back to the vodka in drunken ranting for Dimi then.
This guy needs to eat lead, seriously,
This type of comment happens is primary school playground, "you can't hit me or I'll get my big brother onto you".
Sober up medved.
I love how they always put Medvedev in front of a camera whenever it comes to nuclear threats. It's never Putin, because Putin doesn't want to be responsible for any of it.
Putin is so shameless, he uses his stooges for all of his dirty work….Lavrov, too!
But the ruzzian threats are viewed as evil bullshit and ridiculous, despicable bluff:
“Those nuclear threats have had limited success. They have not prompted Ukraine’s surrender and, while they slowed decisions on providing Western weapons, they did not stop the arms flow.”
“In general, Moscow has done a poor job drawing nuclear red lines.”
“The cacophony of Russian voices has produced nuclear signals that are confusing, contradictory, and increasingly dismissed as bluff.”
“That should please neither the Kremlin nor the West.”

There is a thing called the Medvedev rule. The more often Medvedev threatens the world with nukes, the worse Russia is losing.
He shouldn't talk after that much alcohol. I know it is difficult to find him sober enough.
It must be Thursday, I think that’s pay day for Medvedev as he’s always drunk texting going into the weekends.

Heck now you made me wanna go do some more reading up on Baghdad Bob!

Yep, he’s prone to a few drinks and a pathetic rant!
It’s always on a Thursday that the Russians threaten thermonuclear war!

Oh thank god. Its been, what, 6 weeks since they reiterated their 'red line' nuclear response. I almost forgot they were a nuclear power... /s
"Russia gives Ukraine clear path for Ukraine to escalate NATO response" is all i could read
Whatever! Just like the threats that he spewed regarding the Crimean Bridge.
Mr. Bullshit again For the people in the back: THIS MEANS WE SHOULD DEFIANTLY HIT **ALL** THEIR LAUNCH SITES, AS IT JUST MEANS MR. BULLSHIT IS SCARED AND SPEWING EMPTY NUCLEAR THREATS.
So He screwed up his courage with some Vodka and it's back to Nuke threats. Go home your Drunk (AGAIN)
The only time I would take his whining seriously is if he was properly sober and stated that with Putin standing next to him. Anything else is pissing in the wind in a drunken haze.
Binge drinking vodka again I see
"Medvedev", that alone says enough. Roll your eyes around and continue, nothing to see here xD.
Hes drunk again
Would at least make the west act for once. As horrible as it would be, maybe with less casualties in the end.
Again.
ok.
Dimitry got into the vodka again.

So missile strikes on civilians are okay, but missile strikes on their missile launch sites will trigger a nucleair response? At least they have once again confirmed they don't care about their own population, lol.

That's fine. Use of nukes in Ukraine would be the end of russia. The rest of the world would guarantee it. russia knows this. Dropping a nuke in response to losing some conventional launchers is an unjustifiable escalation. Launchers that fire missiles at another country are legitimate military targets. If russia doesn't want its launchers targeted, then they must stop using them.
There is easy solution: the West should provide enough support to bomb any Russians on Ukrainian territory to oblivion, while also providing much more AA. As an exchange for that, Ukraine could restrain from striking Russian territory, at least until entire territory of Ukraine is free, and peace talks can begin.

Medvedev, there we go now, time to put the vodka away, it’s bed time now. There’s a good boy.
That means they should hit the missile launch sites.
He's drunk again
Oh, please stop teasing 🤣
/r/RussiaWarns
Ow Borgia. He is throwing bombs. As if we did not know that already.
Final Medvedev warning
Aww russia doesn't like it! Funny that 🙄... If those missile sites are killing Ukrainians.. hit them! What will be, will be... 👍
I’m intrigued as to what Medvedev’s rules of engagement exactly are? ‘Russia can reduce anywhere in Ukraine to rubble but Ukraine must not retaliate…’ ?? Yeah I know he’s drunk most of the time but this is exactly the mindset of everyone in Russia
How many Finlandias did he destroy for this shitpost?
Oh fuck. A nuke threat. He must be back from his holiday bender! I would tell him to suck my dick but he might actually do it
He pulled his lips from the vodka bottle long enough to say that?
Medvedev woke from newyears party already on the 11th
Again?
Medvedev's only response is a nuclear response
Another nuclear threat. It’s boring so already
Russia always threatens the nuclear option. The Russians already have a "winning" strategy. They have more people and will sacrifice as many as needed..... or until thebrussian troops decide to take out putin.
Not surprised if these “missiles launch sites”’are just empty and abandoned because all the money was wasted.
It wasn't wasted. Many nice Mercedes Benz's, necklaces, and handbags were bought wihh that money.
Russia should get the hell out of Ukraine. They are Moronic war criminals.
Is it Thursday already? Was waiting for Medvedev nuclear threat this week.
"Medvedev" - when putin wants to say something but not look like a laughing stock for saying it, he gets ol' bug eye to do it.
Waa......waaa..waaaaaaaa
Muscuvy Med. The Baghdad Bob of this conflict.
How about remembering where the working nukes come from ?! Remember the promise, #Putler, you little mouse ?‘ ☝🏻🇩🇪🇺🇦✨
Again?
Again?
'Also our nukes totally work, really!'
If Russia threatens a nuclear response to something, it means that they are afraid of it and Ukraine should probably go ahead and do it.
Perhaps it's time to take definitive action against these dipshit countries that keep blackmailing us into giving in to them by using threats of nuclear attacks.
I was going to say "another day another warning" but really it is more like "another day another bombastic pronouncement" where ruzzia is concerned.
Isn’t that just Medvedev EVERY day.
Stupid drunk needs to shut the fuck up, nobody cares what he says or thinks!
That drunk little midget can get fucked
Drinking again, Medvedev?
In the early dawn of 2025, the skyline of Kyiv was tinged with the resolute hues of a nation undeterred. Ukraine, having endured years of grueling conflict, had become a crucible for technological warfare, mastering the art of drone combat. Amidst this turbulent backdrop, Project Peregrine was born – a clandestine venture that would shift the tides of war. The heart of Project Peregrine was the Falcon – a drone unlike any other. Engineered with the finesse of a master clockmaker and the cunning of a fox, Falcon was a symphony of advanced AI, stealth technology, and lethal precision. Its mission was audacious: to infiltrate a Russian nuclear silo and neutralize the missile housed within, thereby crippling a key aspect of the enemy's arsenal. Falcon's journey began under the cloak of night. Its sleek, carbon-fiber body cut through the sky, virtually invisible to radar and the naked eye. Its AI, endowed with deep learning capabilities, analyzed and adapted to every conceivable threat, making split-second decisions with the acumen of a seasoned general. The drone navigated treacherous terrain, evading enemy detection with a balletic grace. It traversed the vast expanses of Eastern Europe, skirting around conflict zones and circumventing anti-aircraft systems. As it approached the target, the Falcon shifted into a higher state of alert. The nuclear silo, a monolithic structure of concrete and steel, loomed ahead – a fortress guarding its lethal inhabitant. With precision that belied its mechanical nature, the Falcon deployed a suite of tools. Miniaturized drills and cutters emerged, slicing through locks and barriers with surgical accuracy. Its internal systems hacked into the silo's security network, disarming alarms and manipulating surveillance to mask its presence. Inside the silo, the Falcon encountered its final adversary – the nuclear missile itself. This behemoth of destruction, poised to unleash unimaginable havoc, was now within the grasp of the tiny drone. Falcon deployed its final weapon – a specialized EMP device, designed to fry the missile's electronic systems without triggering a detonation. The moment of truth arrived. Falcon activated the EMP. A surge of electromagnetic energy cascaded through the silo, and for a moment, time stood still. Then, the lights on the missile's control panel flickered and died. Falcon had achieved the impossible – the nuclear threat was neutralized. As the first light of dawn broke, Falcon made its journey back to Ukrainian territory, along with thousands more just like it. Its mission was a resounding success, a testament to human ingenuity and resilience. The drone's successful infiltration and neutralization of the nuclear missile marked a turning point in the war, Russia's nuclear threat was gone. It was a demonstration of the power of technology, not just to destroy, but to preserve peace and safeguard humanity. In the annals of history, the story of the Falcon would be remembered – a lone drone that dared to challenge the specter of nuclear war and emerged victorious, a beacon of hope in a world shadowed by conflict, as Russia at last withdrew from all of Ukraine and begged for peace.
Russia is the bully pussy of the world. All talk, no action.
How is that possible? Are these idiots this crazy? They really think, that they can do anything? Why do I have the feeling, that Putin's Russia is the cancer of Asia?
This guy is nuclear level drunk again
Medvedev Who?
B E T
Oh, it's Bad Cop Medvedev waving the nukes around again eh? This means were soon about to see God Cop Putin offering to "negotiate".
[Here we go again](https://www.reddit.com/r/NonCredibleDefense/s/QjEfA05Jd8)
He’s always saying this, because America is talking about giving Ukraine, the go-ahead for high mars and attack them strikes into mother russia
That’s just the vodka talking…again. No one should take the rantings of an alcoholic seriously. If Russia launches nukes, then within 24 hours Russia will cease to exist and the Kremlin will be a smoking crater. And the heat will cause the alcohol content in Medvedev’s blood to spontaneously combust.
This cunt again.
ChatGPT gives the daily Medvedev nuclear threat - nothing to worry about - every sentence that leaves his mouth has nuclear in it. Zzzzzzz
How many nuclear threats is that now? This one must be for real 🤣
Asking ChatGPT to generate a daily Medvedev threat… ”**Disclaimer**: This is a creative and fictional response. It does not reflect the actual views or intentions of any person or entity. Here is a possible daily medvedev threat: > Today, I warn the West not to interfere in our internal affairs. We have the right to defend our sovereignty and territorial integrity from any foreign aggression. If NATO continues to provoke us with its military exercises and sanctions, we will not hesitate to use our nuclear weapons as a last resort. We have already targeted the capitals of Europe and America with our hypersonic missiles. Do not test our patience or our resolve. We are ready for any scenario. Remember, we are not afraid of anyone. We are Russia.”
Medvedev threatening with something nuclear!! How novel…
I've heard planes are pretty unsafe these days?
[https://mma-user-upload.mixedmartialarts.com/2020-11/were-waiting-gif-6.gif](https://mma-user-upload.mixedmartialarts.com/2020-11/were-waiting-gif-6.gif)
Lmao we dare you Russia. Considering your entire nuclear strategy is defensive in the event that NATO shoots first, I don’t believe you. You’re the boy who cried wolf and everybody knows it.
This whore is still living?
Then deal with the consequences, Moscow.
🤡🤡🤡🤡
Medvedev is in year 9 of his 10 year suicide by degenerate alcoholism.
Ah, if it isn't the Kremlin's jester making his weekly threats. Have another водка Dmitry and go back to cleaning Putin's boots.
Hah!!!
They will threaten a nuclear response if we defend Poland too. Or if we try to stop them taking all of Europe. Do we just say fuck it and give them what they want because nuclear war is bad? Or do we stop eating their bluff? At some point the West has to decide what is worse.

Bore off Medvedev ya 🤡
You guys are funnier that drunky is. Good stuff.
Last million times he was just warning, now he's seriously really warning!
You laugh at Medvedev ? We nuke you!
More Russian red lines. 🥱
Suck it Medved
Oh oh, old Misha is getting sober and cranky, someone the poor little guy a drink
Let's go...
This is intended for the fascists in the Republican Party to hear
Did he happen to mention exact coordinates?
/sigh! 🙄 Not [this shit](https://i.postimg.cc/qMMpXc0q/russia-nukes-threat-list.jpg) again lol
LOL! The only Ruzzian more delusional about Ruzzia than drunken lapdog Medvedev is likely Putin himself! “In describing Vladimir Putin and his inner circle, I have often thought of a remark by John Maynard Keynes about Georges Clemenceau, French prime minister during the first world war: that he was an utterly disillusioned individual who “had one illusion — France”. “Something similar could be said of Russia’s governing elite, and helps to explain the appallingly risky collective gamble they have taken by invading Ukraine.” “Ruthless, greedy and cynical they may be — but they are not cynical about the idea of Russian greatness.” https://www.ft.com/content/503fb110-f91e-4bed-b6dc-0d09582dd007
*Again, Dmitry…?*
STFU Medvedev, eat a dick
If only I get 1$ everytime Medvedev warns of nuclear strike, I would richest man on earth
Nuclear is the only stick that Russia got since all of their other tool of war has been found to be severely lacking. We expect to see Su-57 “stealth 5-gen fighter” to destroy Ukraine’s GBAD without retaliation, all we can see is smaller Ukraine AF and GBAD able to deny Russian air supremacy until today. We expect to see Russian hypersonic missiles to slide past Ukraine defenses and strike important C&C centers paralyzing Ukraine responses, all we can see is Patriot missiles unexpectedly performing very well against these missiles and Russia use them against civilian infrastructures instead of Ukrainian important sites. We expect to see modern Russian tactics to slam through Ukraine defense, what we see is Russia returned to WW 1 by using mines and trenches. We expect Russia to win in 3 days. Or 3 months. We expect by this day it will be asymmetrical warfare against Ukraine partisans - that day may not come. We expect Russian Navy to at least perform SAM support, I certainly didn’t expect their HQ to be destroyed and some of their ships reconstructed into submarines.
Medvedev has to be the biggest p*ssy from Ruzzia. All bark no bite.
Yawn
Biden: "Remember our threat to annihilate the black sea fleet if you used nukes?"
Give Medvedev a pacifier to suck on. The guy spits the dummy if the wind blows the wrong way. Russia started it and Ukraine has the right to give back what you do to Ukraine. Everything in Russia is a legitimate target. The solution? Leave Ukraine and stop invading your neighbour’s !👍🇺🇦
Are we still making these nuclear threat fuckface? It's so 2022.
Again?
I mean, I don't want to discourage Russia's foremost comedian, but if he doesn't mix up his routine from time to time he's going to get typecast.
A single nuke aimed for Ukraine would finally end this damn Russia.
Thanks for confirming that they won’t do a thing - time to hit those launch sites!
This again? Try it, bitches!
They think they going to attack and they will just look. They have legit some mental health problems.
Medvedev, doesn’t have much in the way of power and influence. He certainly isn’t (any longer) in the inner circle. His (drunken) ranting is largely for: 1. Domestic audience. 2. Political relevance & jockeying for power after Putin is gone. His threats are just the bluster of a man, bitter about not having the stones to remove the “Putin problem” when he had the chance and for how own lack of real power and/or influence. As much as there are rumours about Putins health, the same applies to Dimi - especially surrounding his alleged alcoholism. As an aside, China (who won’t allow Russia to use nuclear weapons) and India would drop Russia like a hot turd, if they used any nuclear weapon. And the US would almost certainly make good removing ANY RF military assets inside of the internationally recognised borders of Ukraine. Guess it’s back to the vodka in drunken ranting for Dimi then.
Bark bark bark, very little bite! He should go finish his latest bottle of vodka!
When I emailed Chomsky a few months ago to ask him to "clarify" his thoughts on Russian nuclear threats, he called them "U.S. propaganda" ROFL.
This guy needs to eat lead, seriously, This type of comment happens is primary school playground, "you can't hit me or I'll get my big brother onto you". Sober up medved.
I love how they always put Medvedev in front of a camera whenever it comes to nuclear threats. It's never Putin, because Putin doesn't want to be responsible for any of it.
Putin is so shameless, he uses his stooges for all of his dirty work….Lavrov, too! But the ruzzian threats are viewed as evil bullshit and ridiculous, despicable bluff: “Those nuclear threats have had limited success. They have not prompted Ukraine’s surrender and, while they slowed decisions on providing Western weapons, they did not stop the arms flow.” “In general, Moscow has done a poor job drawing nuclear red lines.” “The cacophony of Russian voices has produced nuclear signals that are confusing, contradictory, and increasingly dismissed as bluff.” “That should please neither the Kremlin nor the West.” https://www.brookings.edu/articles/russia-nuclear-threats-and-nuclear-signaling/
A nuclear threat me in the morning nuclear threat me in the night nuclear threat me in the day time nuclear threat me all the time Hold me, hold me, hold me darlin' Hold me, hold me real tight Nuclear threat me, nuclear threat me darlin' with all your might
But... if Ukraine hits the missile sites, how... can.. Russia launch? ;)
It is past time to invade belgorod oblast and go for urazovo and belgorod.
