Russian Security Council Deputy Chairman Dmitry Medvedev did not rule out a scenario, in which Russia will have to strike NATO military bases in case of an escalation due to the use of Western-made long-range weapons against Russia, SİA informs via TASS.
"If the conflict develops by the escalation scenario, it is impossible to rule out anything, because the NATO member states have effectively got fully involved in this conflict," he said in an interview with Al Arabiya.
He made this comment answering a question if Russia can strike military hubs in Romania and Poland, if long-range Western-made missiles will continue to be used against it.
The Western states must realize that they fight on Ukraine’s side," Medvedev continued.
Medvedev explained that "even the most difficult and sad scenario is possible."
"We would not want such scenario, we have all said that repeatedly," the deputy chairman of the Security Council underscored. "We want peace, but this peace must take Russia’s interest into consideration in full."
On November 19, Ukraine carried out strikes at targets in Kursk and Bryansk Regions, using US-made ATACMS and British-made Storm Shadow long-range missiles. In response, Russia carried out a combined strike at a Ukrainian military-industrial complex enterprise using the Oreshnik intermediate-range ballistic missile. According to the Russian Defense Ministry, in the past few days, the Ukrainian forces carried out several more strikes using Western-made long-range missiles.
