MADRID, 7 Nov. (EUROPA PRESS) –
The former president of Russia and current vice president of the Security Council, Dimitri Medvedev, has justified the war started by order of Vladimir Putin just over eight months ago for the nuclear aspirations of Ukraine, from where this arsenal was withdrawn after the signing of the Memorandum from Budapest in 1994.
Medvedev has assured that Ukraine continues to “cry bitterly” after the signing of this agreement with which the nuclear arsenal that had remained in its territory since the time of the Soviet Union was withdrawn and has accused the Ukrainian leaders of being able to use it with “pleasure”. diabolical” on civilians.
In this sense, Medvedev has assured that from Ukraine it has been insinuated “unambiguously” to want to unleash this entire nuclear arsenal “which to a great extent” has motivated what the Kremlin has announced as a “special military operation”, according to told in his profile of the Russian social network VKontakte.
Medvedev, who since the start of the war has been very active on social media in his belligerence against kyiv and its leaders, has said that all Ukrainian presidents, from Leonid Kravchuk to Volodimir Zelensky, have admitted having had to resign those nuclear weapons reluctantly.
And everything, he stressed, despite the fact that “kyiv had no means to maintain that ‘power’ that they obtained by accident.” A decision, that Ukraine renounce this weaponry, which the United States also had to accept due to pressure from the international community, he has said.
Medvedev also wanted to put South Africa as an example of a “responsible” and “sovereign” country with its people and regional security, the first and so far only nation that decided to voluntarily destroy its nuclear weapons, after secretly manufacturing up to six of them, as recognized in 1993 by former president Frederik Willem de Klerk.
With the fall of ‘apartheid’, the new South African government, he stressed, “adopted a responsible and sovereign position with respect to its people, neighboring countries and the entire world community” unlike, he maintains, Ukraine.
“This is precisely the reason why South Africa is today the most important representative of the global architecture of a new multipolar world order”, praised Medvedev, who considers the African country a key element of the international group that together with Russia, China, India and Brazil, is known as BRICS.
