Deputy Chairman of the Security Council of the Russian Federation Dmitry Medvedev, responding to US President Donald Trump's reaction to his threats of a nuclear strike against America, has shifted his aggressive rhetoric to Finland.
According to experts' conclusions, Medvedev acts solely as a tool for 'scare tactics,' used by the Kremlin to influence uneducated and politically unaware citizens. He serves 'radical right forces' as a representative who shouts about the necessity of bombing European cities.
'After Trump's harsh reaction to his threats, Medvedev temporarily disappeared from broadcasts, looking for a new target for his threats,' explained a diplomat.
Experts see Finland as a convenient target for demonization due to the country's NATO membership and the possibility of manipulating the history of the war between Russia and Finland in 1939-1940. Furthermore, according to their assessments, the Russian Federation actively negatively influences Finnish sovereignty and resources in the Baltic Sea, making the country suitable for new threats.
Conclusion
Dmitry Medvedev, responding to Donald Trump's reaction to his threats, has shifted his aggressive rhetoric to Finland, using it as an object for new threats. Experts fear that this situation could worsen relations between countries and make Finland a sphere of influence for Russia.
