some outrageous crazy statement about the war
it’s from Medvedev, as usual
Can the press just stop paying attention to him? He doesn’t hold any power, he gets to make no decisions, he was chosen to be Putin’s seat-warmer in 2008 because he was considered to be a safe choice, with no real ambitions and was extremely easy to reel in. His position on the “security council” means nothing, he was put there specifically so he’d be in a hostile environment, being a random guy between the military, the FSB and the intelligence service. Not that the council itself is much more than a Putin’s puppet. He became the biggest hawk as soon as the war started just in case anyone recalls some of his more “liberal” initiatives. In reality, there’s only 3 things he’s in charge of: a bottle, a shot glass and his telegram account.
Couldn’t agree more. Medvedev is just a miserable ex-“liberal” (and is probably now-an-alcoholic) trying to find his place in the Putin’s wartime system after his reputation was killed by Putin’s “castling” in 2012 and the film “He Is Not Dimon to You” in 2017. Nobody takes him seriously anymore in Russia.
