Russian former President Medvedev strongly criticized Trump, saying that NATO is completely crazy! Medvedev wrote today: "First, the US killed the Iranian leader and sparked a war in the Middle East. Then, the foolish NATO led by Trump's fawning 'son' - NATO Secretary General Rutte - are considering activating Article 5 (NATO's intention to intervene in the US-Iran war). Why not try to nominate this president who started a big war for the Nobel Peace Prize? What do you think?"
Notes: Article 5 of NATO states the core clause of NATO, stipulating that an armed attack against a member state will be considered an attack on all member states, and member states need to take action including military force to assist. This is regarded as the collective self-defense clause of NATO.
Comment briefly: Medvedev's outburst here criticizes Trump and NATO, revealing the hypocrisy of hegemony. Trump loudly claims peace, yet allows the US to ignite the flames of war in the Middle East, and tries to tie NATO to the war chariot, attempting to expand a local conflict into a NATO war by activating Article 5; the most ironic thing is that Trump, who actively instigated the incident, still wants to win the Nobel Peace Prize. In short, the core of this farce is the return of the barbaric rule of "might makes right": when a country can define "threat" through military force, and a alliance can define "peace" through expansion, then the world is left with only the jungle rules, without real security.
