Last week he issued a chilling statement which took aim at Ukraine and its allies.

Highlighting the risks associated with the ongoing supply of weapons to Ukraine, the crazy hardliner who has in the past tried to justify the war in Ukraine raised the prospects of the war escalating , accused the West of risking a proxy war escalating into something much more serious.
He added: “In the context of the proxy war with Russia unleashed by the Western countries, I want to articulate very clearly once again the things that are so obvious to all reasonable to people.
“One, the pumping of Ukraine with weapons by NATO countries, the preparation of its troops to use Western equipment, the sending of mercenaries and the conduct of exercises by Alliance countries near our borders increases the likelihood of a direct and open conflict between NATO and Russia instead of the ‘proxy war’ they are waging.
“Two, such a conflict always has a risk of escalating into a full-fledged nuclear war.
“Three, this would be a catastrophic scenario for all. That’s it.
“So you don’t have to lie to yourself and others. You just have to think about the possible consequences of your actions.
His threatening post continued: ‘The endless talk by foreign analysts about a war between NATO and Russia continues unabated.
‘The cynicism of Western “talking heads” is becoming more and more blatant.
‘The thesis that Russia frightens the world with a nuclear conflict is being pushed to the top of the agenda.
‘Even [Donald] Trump recently came out with this, though, understandably, just to spite [President] Biden.
‘And of course the Europeans are squeaking their little voices.’
He also warned the West: ‘I want to articulate very clearly once again the things that are so obvious to all reasonable people. You don’t have to lie to yourself and others.
ou just have to think about the possible consequences of your actions.
‘And don’t choke on your own saliva in paroxysms of Russophobia

Analysts believe his publicity seeking rant is an indirect pandering to Russian hardliners to present himself as the right man to take over from Putin in the event he is forced out or even dies, given his poor health.
There has been rising speculation over Putin’s deteriorating health, with claims he is fighting blood, thyroid or abdominal cancer, and suggestions he has early stage Parkinson’s disease.
The Russian President is expected to be ‘incapacitated’ and replaced in coup within three months, an ex-MI6 spy has claimed.
Ex-Russian opposition MP Dmitry Gudkov has claimed Medvedev is preparing a power grab if Putin is forced from office.

“He is trying to please the hardliners in the hope that they will promote him, in the event of Putin leaving office,” he told The Times.
