Putin puppet says ‘bomb London’ in twisted rant | World | News

Dmitry Medvedev, a close ally of Vladimir Putin and himself a former Russian President, has appeared to back calls from a former champion skier to bomb London in his latest unhinged diatribe.

And in a lengthy message on the Telegram app, the 59-year-old also mocked President of Latvia Edgars Rinkevics after he broke his arm, suggested Belarus leader Alexander Lukashenko was free to ask Putin to use nuclear weapons against Ukraine and lavished praise on US Presidential candidate Donald Trump.

Medvedev, who has been Deputy Chairman of the Security Council of Russia since 2020, wrote: “Our famous skier Elena Vyalbe proposed dropping a bomb on London.

“Correct, of course, but the issue must be resolved at the root and immediately sink the damned island of Anglo-Saxon dogs.”

He also had scant sympathy for Mr Rinkevics after his accident, saying: “The president of the non-existent country ‘Latvia’, who wanted Russia dead, broke his arm.

“It’s a pity that it’s not the neck. We are waiting.”

Moving on to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, Medvedev was no less scathing, saying:”The pig-musical Kiev clown said that soon ‘there will be a special Ramstein’.

“Will he really replace Till Lindemann on stage and finally return to the phallic piano?”

With less than a month until the pivotal US election, Medvedev also made it clear that his sympathises lay with the “imperishable” former President, saying, albeit somewhat sarcastically: “What a pity that he was not a leader, pharaoh, shah, kagan, sultan, prince, king, king, president everywhere in the last 10 thousand years.”

Moving on to tensions in the Middle East, Medvedev continued: “Israel decided to declare the UN Secretary General non grata. What an idea.

“All leaders of unfriendly countries and international organisations should be declared undesirable. And then there is no need to meet. And the problems themselves will disappear.”

He also referenced “some stinking Kyiv Dunda” who he claimed had “suggested moving the war to Belarus”.

Medvedev commented: “Well then, Alexander Grigorievich will have every reason to turn to Russia to use the tactical nuclear weapons stationed in Belarus.

“And it will be difficult for him to refuse the pleasure of looking at the lights in Kyiv.”

Born in Leningrad (now Saint Petersburg), Medvedev rose to national prominence when he became the President of Russia from 2008 to 2012, succeeding Vladimir Putin.

During his presidency, Medvedev was often seen as a more liberal and reform-minded leader, focusing on modernising Russia’s economy and promoting technological innovation.

However, Putin remained a dominant figure during Medvedev’s tenure as president, continuing to wield considerable influence.

Medvedev also served as Prime Minister from 2012 to 2020, during which he continued to work closely with Putin, who returned to the top job in 2012.

He has been a long-time ally of Putin and is a senior member of the United Russia party, which has held power in the country for over two decades.

In recent years, he has become known for his increasingly belligerent attitude towards the West.
