Take note that this is from the government that the MAGA Republicans support.
This, to them, is honor and strength - to invade a sovereign nation, then threaten to drop nuclear bombs on them for daring to fight back.
That's the world the MAGA Republicans want - one in which they and their allies are fully entitled to do whatever they want to whoever they want, and the only choices others are to be granted are to submit or die.
It's the same reason why half of the U.S. supports our wannabe Putin. These turds allow people like that to fly their intolerance/ignorance/racism/etc. flags and have absolutely no repercussions whatsoever. They are people with no empathy at all.
At the same time, Medvedev said "a nuclear conflict is really not needed by anyone," adding that: "It is obvious that a nuclear response is an extremely difficult decision with irreversible consequences."
Ha! Hahahahahaha! Get fucked! The only reason you say that is because the US already told you that any kind of nuclear attack would result in a good old round of “fuck around and find out”!
Genuinely, though, I wonder how centralized their vodka industry is. A few bombs could cause a fairly major crisis if as many people are alcoholic as rumoured.
