MOSCOW, December 8. /TASS/. Russian Security Council Deputy Chairman Dmitry Medvedev said there is a high likelihood that incumbent US President Joe Biden will lose his bid to return to the White House for a second term in next year’s US presidential election.
The Biden administration faces "the prospect of impeachment (which will hardly take place) or an election defeat (which is very likely to happen). Hence [they have been resorting to] heavy-handed blackmail tactics, non-stop hysteria and [making] hare-brained insinuations directed at us," the senior political figure wrote on his Telegram channel.
Although there are historical precedents for what Medvedev said was the Biden administration’s primitive blackmailing of Congress, in which the mantra goes, "Give our guy (insert relevant surname here) cash, or else we’ll have to fight the Russians ourselves," the latest twist in US politics features something new. Namely, never before in US history has the White House "extracted so much [federal budget] money for a bush-league country teetering on the brink of collapse," he argued, referring to Ukraine, which he said had played a not-so-hidden role in naked corruption schemes in which the incumbent US chief executive and members of his family are directly implicated.
"Not since the Cuban Missile Crisis [in 1962] has the threat of a direct clash between Russia and NATO that could lead to a Third World War been so real," Medvedev added. He also surmised that the US administration would undoubtedly secure additional funding for the Kiev regime, if not this year, then next, in order "to keep their war-driven business model going at all cost."
