The former Russian president has suddenly changed his tone.
Former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev, who became the main "mouthpiece" of the Kremlin's nuclear rhetoric after the war with Ukraine began, has suddenly changed his tone, The Moscow Times reports.
After the AFU invasion of Kursk region, which is now on the eighth day and has covered an area of at least 800 square kilometres, Medvedev, who was previously long on threats, has never once spoken of a retaliatory nuclear strike against Kyiv or Western capitals.
In the past week, only one post has appeared on Medvedev's Telegram channel, where nuclear threats used to be published with a frequency of up to once a month. On August 8, the deputy head of the Security Council called the goal of the AFU operation "to get a new portion of money and weapons," and called for "marching to Odesa, Kharkiv, and Mykolaiv" to "punish the Nazis."
On August 9, Medvedev threatened Germany with Russian tanks in Republic Square (in front of the Reichstag in Berlin) because the Bundestag had approved the use of German military equipment in the Kursk operation of the AFU.
On August 13, the United Russia party published a video of Medvedev promising "deserved punishment" to Ukraine's leadership and calling to collect humanitarian aid for Kursk region residents. Medvedev later urged Kursk authorities to estimate the damage in order to "present (it) for payment" to the Ukrainian side later. "It will be necessary to decide how to recover from them later - and we will recover it for sure," he promised.
Medvedev last threatened nuclear weapons in mid-July.
