Russia-NATO Conflict Will Be 'The End of Everything': Medvedev

The Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council, Dmitry Medvedev, has labeled a potential military conflict between Russia and NATO as an apocalypse and "the end of everything." He drew attention to the fact that European politicians are discussing the need for Western countries to prepare for war with Russia.

"To protect the territorial integrity of our country, ballistic and cruise missiles with special warheads will be used. This is based on our doctrinal military documents and is well-known to everyone. And this is that very sad apocalypse: it is the end of everything," Medvedev wrote on his Telegram channel.

European politicians, as noted by the Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council, "continue to chatter on this topic" to distract voters and justify expenses related to Ukraine. Medvedev stated that any potential conflict between Russia and NATO would not unfold under the scenario of a special military operation but rather would develop in trenches. According to him, Moscow will have no alternative, and the response would be asymmetric.
