He pointed out that embassies are usually evacuated before certain events, and such a decision by Moscow will make European politicians think twice. According to the former president and prime minister, this is how Russia should respond to the fact that EU leaders “said to all Russians: You are second-class people for us.”
Medvedev commented that the European Commission confirmed last week: According to import sanctions imposed on Russia, a car with a Russian license plate, and some personal items, such as laptops, smartphones, jewelry, leather and fur, and even shampoo and toilet paper, are not allowed to enter EU countries. .
The politician believed that the decision was not taken to punish “the criminal and aggressive regime ruling in the Kremlin,” but rather to “spit in the face” of all Russian citizens.
Former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev regularly appears on his Telegram channel with very strong and anti-Western statements, often not-so-veiledly hinting that he wants to resolve differences between Moscow and Washington with a nuclear strike.
