Former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev accused European leaders on Tuesday of seeking to dangerously escalate the Ukraine conflict following the re-election of former US President Donald Trump.
Medvedev, a hawkish senior security official, wrote on Telegram that European politicians were aiming to "push the conflict with Russia into an irreversible phase" while they could and warned against allowing Kyiv to use Western long-range missiles to fire at targets inside Russia.
