Medvedev stated about the “threat of attack on Russia” from Finland, Norway, Poland, and the Baltic countries.

During his visit to the northwest, on September 5, 2025, Dmitry Medvedev, who holds the position of Deputy Secretary of the Security Council of the Russian Federation, again accused neighboring countries of a “threat of attack.” He “expressed the opinion” that Finland, Norway, Poland, and the Baltic countries are increasing military activity near the Russian border.

The information was announced by the state television company RT, which for many years has been broadcasting Kremlin narratives. The publication discussed Medvedev’s words about the need to “strengthen the border” and increase the level of security in light of the actions of neighbors. Once again, he allowed himself sharp statements towards the West and Ukraine.

Main Ideas of Medvedev

During his speech, Medvedev noted that Moscow cannot ignore Finland’s membership in NATO. He emphasized that this will affect Russia’s military plans along the common border. The politician ordered the need for changes in Russia’s defense strategy due to the situation in the region.

In addition, he used skeptical formulations regarding security guarantees for Ukraine, which are being discussed in European countries. In his assessment, such guarantees are essentially “nonsense” and “heresy.” For greater expressiveness, the politician even resorted to using profanity in English.

Statements Following the Visit

After visiting the Russian-Finnish section, Medvedev voiced several key theses.

He emphasized that the Baltic countries and Poland are strengthening their military presence and also reported that “Russia will change defense plans on the border with Finland.”

Medvedev added that “security guarantees” for Ukraine are “dog nonsense.” He used English expressions to more vividly convey his point of view: “bullshit” or “shit.”

The media also recalled Medvedev’s words towards the USA, where he threatened with conflict, noting that President Donald Trump, “playing with ultimatums,” should take into account that “Russia is not comparable in influence with either Israel or Iran.” This happened after Trump announced a new ultimatum to Putin.
