The US branded the comments by the often-inflammatory Dmitry Medvedev “reckless”, as the war of the words between the two global powers continues to ramp up. However, diplomatic efforts appear to be ongoing despite the public clashes and in a rare move US embassy officials were seen attending a security meeting in Moscow on Wednesday.

Medvedev, who served as Russian president from 2008 and 2012 and is now a top security official, flipped Trump’s remarks, writing: “I only know of one REALLY BAD thing — WWIII. I hope Trump understands this!”

Trump’s special envoy to Ukraine, Keith Kellogg, then weighed into the row.

“Stoking fears of WW III is an unfortunate, reckless comment by @MedvedevRussiaE and unfitting of a world power,” he wrote on X. “President Trump @POTUS is working to stop this war and end the killing. We await receipt of RU Memorandum (Term Sheet) that you promised a week ago. Cease fire now.”

pretending that they disagree.

But one leader I think might be serious in his threats, although the rest of his country disagrees per se, and that is BiBi, towards Gaza and Iran. shithole agrees with BiBi.

2. Let alone if the corruption, incompetence, fraud that has turned the Second Most Powerful Army in the World ...

... into the second most powerful army in Ukraine, what has that same corruption, incompetence, fraud done to it's nuclear arsenal? They can't seem to get a single aircraft carrier to sea, how are they at maintaining an active nuclear program.

Nuclear weapons don't just get put on a shelf until needed. The have to be seriously maintained and monitored.

3. Eff them. The Russian military is an empty shell.

Ukraine has smacked the shit out of them and exposed them as a depleted ‘force’ run by political incompetents.

Just 2-years ago Russian soldiers attempted to a Coup d’Etat!! Against Putin!
