In a chilling broadcast, Russian TV presenters have called on Vladimir Putin to obliterate the UK with a colossal tsunami propelled by nuclear bombs.
In the latest unhinged rant on the state-controlled HTB news network, 53-year-old commentator Vladimir Sergienko suggested London should be destroyed by an “underwater nuclear explosion”. The deranged attack, he reasoned, would “blind” Britain and shatter the internet across the nation.
A guest said: “If there is no Britain, there is no problem.” Another guest jokes that Russia’s military would give Brits a three-day head start to “swim” across the Channel before nukes were unleashed.

Ironically, political analyst Sergienko previously lived in the West, where a move to strip him of his German citizenship is under review by the courts, reports the Mirror.
Lt-Gen Gurulev, an ex-tank commander and military strategist, also backed the destruction of Britain, following Russia‘s accusation that the UK is leading a Western campaign to permit Ukrainian strikes on Russia using NATO-supplied missiles.
Lt-Gen Gurulev said: “We have enough non-strategic [tactical] nuclear weapons, which will [be launched] and leave nothing of Britain – a normal pre-emptive strike. The people of Britain are there, they also want to live a good and happy life at our expense, right? But if there is no Britain, there is no problem.”
Russian TV host Vladimir Solovyov added: “But first we’ll give three days for the British to leave their island.”
MP and reservist general, Andrei Gurulev, quipped: “Swim, swim, swim.”
General Gurulev suggested Russia use Poseidon, an unmanned nuclear-powered underwater drone that has “unlimited range”. He added that the current Russian nuculear doctrine was “simply outdated” and advocated striking first as a warning not to use long-range nukes on Putin’s turf.
Ukrainian-born pundit Sergienko, who is loyal to the Kremlin and reportedly hasc close links to the FSB security service said: “Modern doctrine should explain to the stupid Western politician in his stupid language, so that he understands what will happen to him.”
London, Paris and Berlin should be targeted, he said.
