Deputy Chairman of the Security Council of the Russian Federation Dmitry Medvedev has made a public demand for US President Donald Trump to eliminate Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelenskyy. This became known from official publications in Telegram channels citing statements by the Russian politician.
Claims Against Ukrainian Leadership
In his address, Dmitry Medvedev accused Volodymyr Zelenskyy of sharp criticism against the American administration. The Russian official stated that the President of Ukraine allegedly systematically ignores Washington's appeals and turns Western politicians against the White House.
Other claims included previous support for Joe Biden, requests for military and financial assistance, and the continuation of Armed Forces of Ukraine attacks on Russian oil refineries. According to Medvedev, such actions allegedly increase the risk of a nuclear confrontation.
Proposal to US Intelligence Services
To resolve the situation, the Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council suggested using American historical precedents. He openly called on the White House chief to instruct the Secretary of Defense and the CIA Director to eliminate the Ukrainian leader.
In his publication, Medvedev noted that the method, place, and specific way of implementing this task allegedly have no fundamental significance for the American side.
Political Context and Reaction
Such statements were made against the backdrop of discussions regarding the prospects for possible peace talks between Russia, Ukraine, and the US. Experts note that such public outbursts by Russian officials are aimed at escalating information tension and pressuring Western leaders.
The Kremlin regularly comments on the course of the conflict and the impact of Western sanctions on the Russian economy, but open calls for the physical elimination of heads of state by official representatives of the Russian Federation remain a tool of radical political rhetoric.
