Russia's Medvedev says World War III 'will undoubtedly begin' if Trump continues 'insane course' of regime change
Anadolu Agency ^ | 3.27.2026 | Elena Teslova

World War III will break out if US President Donald Trump "continues his insane course of criminally changing political regimes," the deputy chairman of Russia's powerful Security Council said Monday.

Speaking in an interview with the Russian state news agency Tass, Dmitry Medvedev described Washington's actions as "a war by the US and its allies to preserve global dominance."

"If Trump continues his insane course of criminally changing political regimes, it will undoubtedly begin. And any event could be the trigger. Any event," he warned.

According to Medvedev's assessment, the vulnerability of US and Israeli officials "has significantly increased" since Iran declared a holy war.

"The fact that the Iranians haven't responded too seriously yet means they don't have many opportunities. But they know how to wait; they are an ancient civilization," he said.

Medvedev, who served as Russian president from 2008 to 2012, stressed that "Trump made a grave mistake."

"With his decision, he put all Americans under potential threat, even despite the fact that the Iranian regime is not liked in neighboring Arab countries.”

“More importantly, the late Ayatollah (Ali Khamenei) was the spiritual father of nearly 300 million Shiites. And now he is also a martyr. You can imagine the rest. And now there is no doubt that Iran will pursue the creation of nuclear weapons with redoubled energy," he said.

Asked whether Iran has the strength to withstand this confrontation, Medvedev replied: "They will cope, but the price of revival will be high. It requires a high level of societal consolidation. And the Americans have provided such consolidation.”

He described the reaction of European countries to the actions of the US and Israel as "toadyism and vileness."

"European vassals, with lust and delight, wipe their faces after receiving a dose of American-Israeli 'yellow dew' directly in their eyes," he said.

Asked whether the International Olympic Committee (IOC) might bar US and Israeli athletes from competition as it did Russians several years ago, Medvedev said the IOC and the Olympic movement should be dissolved and rebuilt, remembering the precepts of French historian Pierre de Coubertin, who co-founded the International Olympic Committee and served as its second president.

Turning to the Russia-Ukraine talks, Medvedev acknowledged that there is a danger that Moscow is now being "coaxed" into negotiations with Kyiv to give Ukraine time for reinforcement.

Asked whether there are any guarantees that one day someone in Western capitals won't decide to solve the problem with a defiant Moscow, he said: "There are and can be no magic remedies against the actions of arrant idiots and clinical bastards."

"There is one guarantee: the US is afraid of Russia and knows the price of a nuclear conflict. If one were to occur, Hiroshima and Nagasaki would be child's play in a sandbox," he added.

It’s late in the week for him to drunk-rage. Did he mention nukes? He always mentions nukes when he is hitting the vodka.

Judging from the overwhelming success of Russia’s latest
“operation”.
I’d consider a new point of view.
All our nuke rockets are solid fueled,
not all of yours are. China demonstrated recently
how reliable liquid fueled nukes can be.
American Pols are crooked, but they don’t
even get close to the magnitude of
bribery that the rest of the world does.
We presume that a Nuke war is Very possible,
they do not so, they built Crap. and stole
what they could to line somebodies pockets.

“...to undo Victoria Nuland’s regime change”

LOL, more of your Russian lies & propaganda

Ukraine merely got rid of a betraying Russian stooge

And fortunately, Putin’s failed invasion is eating Russia alive ...

“Putin begs oligarchs for money to help boost Russia’s crippled economy during Ukraine war”

I'm trying to imagine Medvedev saying something more ridiculous and out of context but I cant. Iran has millenniums of amazing history but the diabolical IRGC and the whole Islamic Republic of Iran have only been around for 50 years. They've been murdering the Iranian people on the scale of Pol Pot in Cambodia, Stalin in USSR, Idi Amin in Uganda, etc. etc. The good people of Iran are begging for freedom. If we let them down now, it will be a huge tragedy...and betrayal.

You forgot to call me a racist, homophobe, antisemite and Nazi because you disagree with me.

Try to be a better brainless boob next time.

I heard he is getting some help now, so maybe there won't be a nuclear war.

Last sentence:

"There is one guarantee: the US is afraid of Russia and knows the price of a nuclear conflict. If one were to occur, Hiroshima and Nagasaki would be child's play in a sandbox," he added.

Of course, he would die in it.

Hmmm… Maduro, the Ayatollahs, maybe the Castro puppet.

Pretty much only Kim and his psycho sister and Putin are left.

I trust Pres. Trump’s judgment, and I believe he might be able to do a clean sweep without giving everyone in the world a hair lip.

That’s right. They are an ancient civilization. Until Islam came along Persia was one of the great powers of the world. They’ve been a basket case ever since.

Even a stopped clock, etc.... Things continue ramping up, and more nations are discovering their own interests are at stake. World Wars begin like brush fires; the more there are the greater likelihood of a giant conflagration.
