Deputy Chairman of the Security Council of the Russian Federation Dmitry Medvedev reacted to the lend-lease program for Ukraine, which provides for the supply of Western weapons. He said that military assistance to Ukraine provokes a “nuclear war” from NATO.

Medvedev wrote about this on his Telegram page.

Putin’s ally was indignant at the fact that in Europe and the United States they are talking about nuclear threats to Russia, but he himself raised this topic and again threatened NATO with a nuclear war.

“The pumping of Ukraine by NATO countries with weapons, the training of its troops to use Western equipment, the dispatch of mercenaries and the conduct of exercises of the Alliance countries near our borders increase the likelihood of a direct and open conflict between NATO and Russia instead of an ongoing “war of power of attorney.” Such a conflict always has the risk of turning into a full-fledged nuclear war. This will be a catastrophic scenario for everyone. You just need to think about the possible consequences of your actions,” he wrote.

Recall that most countries of the world help the Ukrainian military to stand against the invaders. The USA is one of those countries. The United States has already fully approved the lend-lease program to provide Ukraine with those goods that may be needed in time of war.
