to kill, rape, loot, destroy entire cities and more.&nbsp;That is, all this, by Moscow logic, is very good.&nbsp;And it is no longer possible to do anything in response to the Ukrainian Armed Forces, because this is an &#8220;operation&#8221; on our territory, they say, it is impossible to enter them.&nbsp;This is the logic of bandits from the wide road, \u201dhe said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to the former minister, if the Ukrainian forces know that weapons are accumulating in certain border areas of Russia, which will then be transported to Ukraine, then these forces should &#8220;ensure that such weapons are not available at these landfills and bases.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;As for Russia intimidating the UK, they can, of course, intimidate anyone, but I&#8217;m afraid that, unlike Ukraine, which has no nuclear weapons, intimidating the UK with nuclear weapons must be completely inadequate.&nbsp;On the other hand, there is nothing new here, because Russia is an inadequate country, \u201dthe interlocutor said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He also questioned the possibility that the Russians could be the first to use nuclear weapons.&nbsp;&#8220;I do not think it is a real thing.&nbsp;Because even Russian morons understand that this will end in physical destruction for them.&nbsp;Therefore, it is not necessary to think that this can be further threatened.&nbsp;And the fact that both Britain and the United States have clearly stated that in this case Russia will have to go through a terrible catastrophe &#8211;
