The Deputy Chairman of the Security Council of Russia, Dmitry Medvedev, threatened France that if it sends its soldiers to Ukraine, they will be destroyed, and for the French political leadership, this will be tantamount to guillotining.
„Eliminating French military personnel who might appear in Ukraine would be a critical but not particularly difficult mission for the Russian armed forces, but for Paris such a humiliating defeat of its legions would be tantamount to guillotining,” he said. Medvedev, quoted by the TASS agency.
„Indeed, for the success of our cause, it would be well for the restless French to send a few regiments to “Banderaland”. It would be very problematic to hide such a number of servicemen, so their systematic elimination would not be the most difficult task, but certainly the most important one, Medvedev says.
According to the former president of Russia, it would be “impossible” to hide so many chests. Medvedev indicated that such servicemen would become full-fledged combatants as part of the interventionist contingent, and therefore their destruction would be a “priority and a matter of honor” for the Russian Armed Forces.
In his words, this will be a huge blow to the French political leadership, because there will be many questions both from relatives of the dead and from the political parties in the country.
French President Emmanuel Macron said earlier that it is not excluded that at some point NATO will send ground forces to Ukraine to stop the Russian aggressor. As usual, there are conflicting statements from Moscow on the matter: some Kremlin propagandists say it would be tantamount to World War III, while others like Medvedev say the Russian army will handle these troops without a problem.
