The Deputy Chairman of the Russian National Security Council, Dmitry Medvedev, said on Wednesday that ending any war quickly is possible through two options: a peace agreement or the use of nuclear weapons.
window for solution
However, despite the threatening language that dominated the Russian official’s video, it opened a window for a peaceful solution with the West.
Medvedev said his country’s military campaign in Ukraine might end when the West stops supplying weapons to Kiev.
“Chinese warning”
Medvedev’s speech came hours following a Western report that Chinese President Xi Jinping had warned his Russian counterpart, Vladimir Putin, of the consequences of using nuclear weapons in Ukraine.
This warning was reported by the British newspaper “Financial Times”, and attributed it to Western and Chinese officials.
She said President Xi warned Putin regarding this during his visit to Moscow last March.
China has not officially commented on this report so far, at a time when the Kremlin considered it “slanderous allegations.”
As for the advisor to the Ukrainian President, Andrei Yermak, he stated, “China’s position on the “crazy” Russian nuclear threat is important.
It is not clear whether Medvedev’s statement is a comment on the British newspaper’s report.
