Russian ex-president warns West about nuclear weapons transfer to Ukraine
Former Russian leader **Dmitry Medvedev** makes strong statement about possible nuclear weapons transfer to Ukraine. He suggests Russia might view such actions as direct attack requiring nuclear response
Dmitry Medvedev (former Russian president from 08-12) made a direct-warning statement about nuclear weapons transfer to Ukraine: any such actions by Western countries could trigger serious counter-measures from Moscow
Last week The NY Times published an article where un-named Western officials discussed possible nuclear weapons transfer to Ukraine by US president Joe Biden — although this idea raised many concerns about its effects
Medvedev wrote on his Telegram channel that American media and policy-makers discussions about giving nuclear weapons to Kyiv are getting serious attention. He pointed-out that even talking about such transfers could be seen as prep work for nuclear conflict with Russia; this matches Russias recently-changed nuclear policy rules
