    Russia didn’t say this. The clown Medvedev did. I call bullshit.

    Maybe read the fuckin’ article before writing a comment.

    Edit: Also, fuck newsweek for spreading panic and borderline false information.

      After the third bottle of vodka, I too like to threaten everybody with nuclear war. The mainstream media are suppressing that information, though.

        This guy knows. I disagree about mainstream media suppressing information, though (at least in germany). I have often checked with countless reputable independent sources and this simply isn’t the case.

          I can positively confirm that the German mainstream media game never reported on my vodka fuelled antics. Might have to do with the fact that I prefer beer anyway.

          For sure, but the argument being made here isn’t that Medvedev is speaking truth, but that he can be referred to with “Russia says.” Which, yeah, he’s a mouthpiece for the Russian government, so that checks out, accuracy of the statement notwithstanding.
