Dmitry Medvedev, an ex-Russian president and close ally of Putin, said in published remarks the West's continued supply of arms to Kyiv risked a global nuclear disaster - reiterating apocalyptic rhetoric seen as an effort to deter deeper Western involvement with Russia struggling for battlefield momentum."When the Russian Federation talks about a nuclear conflict ... two questions arise," Mykailo Podolyak tweeted.
