Dmitry Medvedev, Vice Chairman of the Russian Federation Security Council, commented on the EU's 18th round of economic sanctions against Russia.

This Russian senior official stated that the new round of EU sanctions are meaningless and emphasized that all previous sanctions have not had any significant impact on Russia. In this context, he said that the Russian military and political leadership will continue to intensify efforts to strike military targets of the Kyiv regime, including those in the Ukrainian capital, Kyiv.

At the same time, in a statement released on his Telegram channel, Medvedev particularly emphasized the necessity of keeping distance from EU countries, especially those he called "the most notorious countries." The Baltic Three (Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia), Poland, the UK, as well as France and Germany, were subjected to his severe criticism.

Medvedev accused the leaders of these two countries of attempting to emulate Nazi Germany. He stated that Europe is now repeating historical mistakes, and the consequences of which are clearly documented in history.

In this context, the vice chairman of the Russian Federation Security Council stated that it is necessary to cultivate hatred toward unfriendly countries and regard it as a weapon, which ultimately will transform into affection — but only for those who deserve to be loved.

This Russian senior official concluded: "We need to have deep hatred for them, just like our predecessors did."

In the view of Fat Goose, Medvedev has been speaking sharply in recent years, shifting from a "pro-Western" faction to an "uncompromising eagle," perhaps to erase the image of "the kid with an Apple phone." After all, nowadays, Russia is not very satisfied with the "moderate faction." Fat Goose is unsure whether this is his personal idea or a strategy designed by the upper echelons' "image designers" for him. We also don't know his true purpose for suddenly becoming so eloquent.

Fat Goose believes that inciting hatred is bad, but for those stubborn and unresponsive unfriendly countries that ignore warnings, it is necessary to respond to their first provocation with double retaliation, even annihilation. After all, one must respond in a way they understand, but there is no need for hatred.
