Dmitry Medvedev, Russia’s former president, launched a scathing attack on Donald Trump and warned that a ‘global catastrophe’ may be imminent after US-Israel strikes killed Iran’s Ayatollah Khamenei
A senior Vladimir Putin associate has delivered a blistering assault on US President Donald Trump whilst issuing another terrifying World War 3 threat. Dmitry Medvedev, Russia’s former president, warned that the globe is approaching a massive conflict, alleging that American actions might spark World War III and that a “global catastrophe” could be looming.
He declared: “Has the Third World War already begun, or is the world still not entering it, are we balancing? Formally, no, but if Trump continues his insane course of criminal regime change, it will undoubtedly begin.
“And any event could trigger it. Any event.
“This is a war by the US and its allies to maintain global dominance.
“The pigs don’t want to give up their trough. Trump made a grave mistake.
“With his decision, he put all Americans under potential attack, even though the Iranian regime is not well-liked in neighbouring Arab countries. The main thing is that the late Ayatollah was the spiritual father of nearly 300 million Shiites.
“And now he’s also a martyr. You can fill in the rest yourself.
“And now there’s no doubt that Iran will redouble its efforts to develop nuclear weapons.” The remarks follow just one day after the US- Israel launched the joint assault on Iran.
America and Israel executed strikes on Saturday (February 28) which led to the death of Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, a development that has dramatically heightened regional tensions. In the wake of the operation, Israel has persisted in launching further attacks on Tehran, heightening concerns of a wider and more unstable conflict across the Middle East, reports the Express.
On Saturday, Mr Medvedev stated on social media: “The peacekeeper is at it again. The talks with Iran were just a cover.
“Everyone knew that. So who has more patience to wait for the enemy’s sorry end now?
“The US is just 249 years old. The Persian Empire was founded over 2500 years ago.
“Let’s see what happens in 100 years or so..” Recently, Russian propagandists threatened to execute a terrifying strike on Europe in retaliation to Iran’s missile attack, as experts pointed the finger at Trump for “unwittingly creating political and psychological opportunities”.
Dimitri Simes, American author, editor, and political pundit commented: “Estonia is waging war against us. I think we should give it some thought that Mr Trump unwittingly created political and psychological opportunities for us, he untied our hands for our Supreme Commander in chief to do whatever he finds appropriate to do for the nation’s security.”
