Former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev speaks out on the war in Ukraine.

He justifies Russia's war of aggression as a fight for "home soil".

MOSCOW — Former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev on Friday (November 4) declared Russia's war of aggression against Ukraine a "holy conflict with Satan."

At the same time, he warned that Moscow could send all its enemies to the "eternal fires of Gehenna" - an early Jewish New Testament term for hell.

In a blog post marking National Unity Day in Russia, Medvedev justified the Ukraine war by like President Vladimir Putin presenting the country as part of Russia.

“We don't need foreign territories, we have everything in abundance.

But there is home soil on which our ancestors lived and on which our people live today.

We will not give them to anyone," Medvedev wrote in his text on the Telegram news service.

Ukraine-News: Medvedev speaks of the West as "part of a dying world"

He described Russia's opponents in Ukraine and the West as "part of a dying world".

Medvedev put one insult after another: He spoke of a "bunch of crazy Nazi drug addicts" as well as "drugged and intimidated people and a large pack of barking dogs from the western kennel".

That's not all: Medvedev also said on Telegram that a "motley pack of grunting gilts and narrow-minded residents from the collapsed western empire" were also against Russia's war.

Western citizens "salivate down their chins from degeneration".

They have "no beliefs and no ideals," but do have artificially invented "obscene habits" that would contradict the morality "conferred on ordinary people."

Putin's close confidant observed: "Therefore, having risen against them, we have attained sacred power."

Medvedev's anger was also directed at Russian citizens who left the country as part of the partial mobilization.

"Cowardly traitors and greedy defectors have fled to distant lands - may their bones rot abroad," wrote the ex-president.

"Frightened partners" who left her were not "friends" but merely "had happened to be fellow travelers".

Without them, one had become “stronger and cleaner”.

Medvedev, who is also deputy head of the Security Council of the Russian Federation, also took up the propaganda motif that has recently been circulating in Russia that Ukraine is dealing with devilish forces: “The aim is to stop the supreme lord of hell, what name he also assumes - Satan, Lucifer or Iblis,” he formulated.

Because unlike the devil, Russia is not about death, but about “life”.

Putin made a similar statement in his annexation speech.

While Russia's weapon is "the truth", the opposing side uses "a complicated lie".

"Therefore our cause is just," he claimed, referring to a quote with which the Soviet Union had called for defense against the German attack in 1941.

Medvedev, who as president (2008-2012) embodied the hope for a more liberal Russia, has repeatedly made particularly radical statements about the Ukraine war.

Putin wants to open a major historical exhibition in Moscow on Friday, presenting the official Russian view of Ukraine.
