One of Russian President Vladimir Putin 's close cronies - whose finger was on the Russian nuclear trigger for four years - has directly threatened atomic war on the world.
Dmitry Medvedev, 57 - who served as the President of Russia between 2008 and 2012 and Prime Minister of the country between 2012 and 2020 - claims the West must accede to Moscow’s demands to avoid doomsday.
The Kremlin figurehead went on to insist that if Ukraine wants to win the war, which has been going on since the 24 February - which would mean retaking territory which has been invaded by Putin, it could justify the Kremlin using nuclear weapons.
