Medvedev says West will inevitably 'lose' on Ukraine front

Sharing on Telegram channel, Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council Dmitry Medvedev said that any counterattack from Ukraine will be stifled, and Russia will not stop until the Kiev government completely collapses.

“A war with the West will sooner or later become boring and costly. But for us, it is a tragedy for our people. This is an existential conflict. A war for self-preservation. Either them or us,” said Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council Dmitry Medvedev.

For Russia, the conflict has become a struggle for self-preservation, according to Mr. Medvedev.

Mr Medvedev expressed the view that Western governments would change, their elites would tire and beg for negotiations to end the conflict. He considered the West's "defeat" on the Ukrainian front as inevitable.

“Any counterattack will fail. But we must not stop until the current terrorist state is destroyed, and must be completely destroyed,” Dmitry Medvedev said, emphasizing that the “ashes” of terrorism should not remain.
