Medvedev: Trump should have been active elsewhere

Dmitry Medvedev, Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council, commenting on the attack by American troops on Venezuela, said that US President Donald Trump should turn his attention to Ukraine.

"Trump should have been as active as he was with Venezuela, in a completely different place. The trained "Ukrainian animals" <...> have completely lost their hands," he said in an interview with RIA Novosti.

According to him, the United States could strike at the military bases of Banderistan.

"Let's pray that God will protect our lives, our families, and protect Venezuela."
