“I don’t care what India is doing in Russia. They can defeat dead economies together. “We have little business with India. Their tariffs are too high in the world. Similarly, Russia and the US don’t do that at all. He’s in a very dangerous territory to Medvedev, the failed former president who still thinks he is president!”

In response to Trump’s post, Medvedev referenced Russia’s “dead hands.” This is an automated Cold War era nuclear retaliation system developed by the Soviet Union.

“If some words from the former Russian president elicit such a neural response from the powerful president of what appears to be the United States, then clearly Russia is right and will continue on its chosen path,” Medvedev wrote in Telegram.

“Trump is playing an ultimatum game with Russia: 50 days or 10, “ Medvedev complained in an X post earlier this week. “He should remember two things: 1. Russia is neither Israel nor Iran. 2. Each new ultimatum is a threat and a step towards war. Not between Russia and Ukraine, not between its own country.
