Former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev said Monday that relations between Moscow and Washington are now “much worse” than in 1962, when the Cuban Missile Crisis nearly sparked a nuclear conflict at the height of the Cold War.
“I’ll say a bitter thing: the situation today is much worse than in 1962,” defended Medvedev, the current vice-president of the Russian Security Council, who believes that “a full-scale war is being waged against Russia,” with North American-American weapons and the participation of “American special forces and advisers,” the Russian news agency TASS reported.
According to the Russian leader, Western powers led by Washington are trying to carry out “geopolitical intervention” against Russia.
