Medvedev: Russia will win the SMO, but then an equally difficult time will begin

24 February 2023

Russia will win the SMO, and then "some kind of agreement" will be reached, but the problems will not end there, Russian Security Council (SB) Deputy Chairman Dmitry Medvedev said Friday.

 

In his Telegram channel, he recalled that the special operation has been going on for a year. "One year our servicemen are restoring order, peace and justice to our land, protecting our people and destroying the roots of neo-Nazism. They are heroes. The whole country is helping them by supplying the war front with everything they need," the politician wrote.

 

"Victory will be achieved," he stressed. "All of us want it to be as soon as possible. And that day will come. We will regain our territories and reliably protect our people who have suffered through years of genocide and shelling," Medvedev added.

 

According to the deputy head of the Security Council, the next step will be negotiations, which "will be hard and nerve-racking." "First of all, because the formal negotiators on the part of our enemy are one people, and the actual leaders are quite different ones," he explained. Medvedev noted that decisions for the Kiev regime "will be made overseas by those in charge of supplying weapons to Kiev and allocating money to support the remains of the Ukrainian economy."

 

The politician pointed to the obvious motives of Russia's main enemies: to weaken the country as much as possible, to bleed it dry for a long time. "Therefore, they are not interested in ending the conflict. But sooner or later, according to historical laws, they will do it. And then some kind of agreement will appear. Naturally, without a fundamental agreement on real borders or a new Helsinki Pact to ensure security in Europe. Just some agreement," says the SB deputy chairman.

 

"Then, most likely, an equally difficult time will begin. Exhausting months and years of confrontation, hysteria and boorishness on the part of those who will manage the scrap that remains of Ukraine," Medvedev concluded. "Their fate is unenviable," he stressed.
