Earlier, the US Embassy in Moscow posted on its Twitter (blocked in the Russian Federation) an appeal stating that it was “in solidarity with all” those who “strive to create a more peaceful future.”
“And the war in Ukraine, they say, is not worthy of everyone like that,” Medvedev replied to this, adding that “The United States is spending tens of billions on the war in Ukraine, supplying its weapons on a gigantic scale, exterminating to thousands of people with empowered hands”. “This is extreme cynicism in the best Nazi traditions,” Medvedev said.
“The main New Year’s gift with the ammunition load of the Zircon missiles went yesterday to the shores of the NATO countries,” recalled the deputy chairman of the Security Council of the Russian Federation. He is confident that this “will bring to life anyone who poses a direct threat to Russia and our allies.”
The day before, Russian President Vladimir Putin participated in the commissioning ceremony of the Admiral Gorshkov frigate equipped with the Zirkon hypersonic missile system. The frigate will traverse the Atlantic and Indian Oceans as well as the Mediterranean Sea, Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu said. The Zircons themselves are capable of penetrating all air defense and missile defense systems.
