Russian official calls for eliminating Ukrainian leadership

Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council Dmitry Medvedev has written that the Ukrainian leadership must be eliminated if its involvement in the terrorist attack in the Crocus City Hall is confirmed.

“Even if sufficient evidence is received that the representatives of Ukraine’s Azov regiment, Chief of the Ukrainian Defence Intelligence Kyrylo Budanov or Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy are behind the terrorist attack, they will not be punished by the International Criminal Court [ICC] or other courts,” Gazeta.ru reports citing Medvedev’s message in Telegram.

He noted that it is impossible to implement such a decision at the UN because of the Russophobic consensus and the veto of the Anglo-Saxons in the UN Security Council.

"It is necessary to chop up Bandera’s pigs, as the Ministry of State Security of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics [USSR] did valiantly after the war,” Medvedev wrote.

The Ukrainian leaders should be killed like Yevhen Konovalets and Stepan Bandera, he noted.

Medvedev added that this could be done in Kyiv or another suitable place.
