Baghdad Russian Vice President Dmitry Medvedev affirmed: Ukraine is ephemeral and no one needs it.

In a press statement, he said: The security of Washington, London and Brussels is much more important to NATO than the fleeting fate of Ukraine, which no one needs.

He added: If the threat to Russia crosses the red line, we will have to respond, and it is certainly not a trick.

He explained: Russia has the right to use nuclear weapons if necessary.

Medvedev stressed: We will do our best to prevent the emergence of nuclear weapons in our hostile neighbors, such as Ukraine, which is currently controlled by NATO.
