As he urges further escalation, a Russian military expert has issued a worrisome threat to the US and Europe.

Regarding Russia, tensions are still high on the international scene at the moment.

Donald Trump has expressed his displeasure with Vladimir Putin, the country’s leader, and threatened to impose further penalties on him if he doesn’t take action to bring about peace in Ukraine.

Additionally, European leaders have cautioned that Russia may want to expand further and that if the country decides to attack a NATO country, a larger confrontation may break out.

With his most recent remarks, Kremlin spokesperson and military expert Captain Vasily Dandykin hasn’t done much to allay these concerns about a global conflict.

Indeed, when asked about the future of the US and Europe, Dandykin had some quite alarming answers.

When he was asked if Russia had the ‘required number of missiles’ to reach European countries, like Estonia and its capital, Tallinn, he said: “I don’t think much will be needed. But seriously, I think it’s time for our ‘Oreshnik’ to come out on stage again.”

“And during the period of this ultimatum, I think our ‘defense industry’ is not sleeping and has already produced enough missiles.”

The Oreshnik missiles are thought to have an intermediate range and have recently been employed in warfare, as evidenced by the November bombardment of Ukraine with a fleet of the warheads.

He also addressed recent purported threats from Donald Trump about bombing Moscow and stressed Ukraine’s friends have to face their own ultimatum.

He claimed that our president had stated unequivocally that “either Russia will be free and sovereign, or it will not exist at all” prior to Trump’s alleged ultimatum.

“It’s time for us to present an ultimatum to Kyiv’s guardians. That would be the best decision. They don’t abandon their scoundrels until they’ve squeezed them dry – they won’t calm down.”

Additionally, he charged that European countries were turning against Russia and claimed that Friedrich Merz, the German Chancellor, was using Nazi rhetoric since Danykin had used a word that was widely used by the Nazis.

He continued: “Moreover, it seems that Merz’s fascist grandfather has woken up, and the phrase ‘Drang nach Osten’ has gotten stuck in his head.”

“The Poles are approaching, and they are already demanding access to the Black Sea. In a word, we have a lot of work ahead of us.”

Nazi propaganda used the phrase “Drang nach Osten,” which translates to “pressure to the East,” to characterise German expansion into the East during the Nazi occupation.
