Medvedev Urges Caution against Risks of Russia-Europe War, Albeit Highly Unlikely
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Although a war between Russia and Europe is unlikely, Moscow should still stay vigilant, Russian Security Council Deputy Chairman Dmitry Medvedev wrote on his Telegram channel.
"Scenarios of a war with Russia in the next five years are peddled to people from every newsstand in Europe. It just cannot be," the politician wrote, adding that "the likelihood of a fatal accident happening always exists." So, he recommended being "on alert," TASS reported.
"And such a conflict is fraught with an absolutely real risk of escalating into a war using weapons of mass destruction," the senior Russian security official concluded.
