The probability of Europe dragging the world into a new military conflict is the highest since 1945.
Dmitry Medvedev made this statement in his Telegram channel on September 29.
Medvedev criticized the current generation of European leaders, saying they are short-sighted and hostile to Russia.
He linked this to the end of the era of strong European political figures, citing Silvio Berlusconi as an example.
Silvio Berlusconi was a former Italian prime minister who served four non-consecutive terms and died in 2023.

Sergey Lavrov stated that European countries are actively preparing for a military conflict with Russia and are aiming for full combat readiness by 2030. — vm
Lithuanian Foreign Minister Kestutis Budrys said the idea of attacking Kaliningrad with NATO forces is intended to demonstrate resolve and dispel myths about the inability to defend themselves. — vm
