Former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev, now deputy chairman of Russia’s Security Council, made the comments in an 8,000-word article on Russian-Polish relations, saying Moscow now had a “dangerous enemy” in Poland.
Poland, which has backed Ukraine, accuses Russia of trying to destabilise the country with disinformation campaigns and espionage. Moscow has condemned what it sees as Warsaw’s hostile stance towards it and Russian interests in Poland.
There was no immediate response to Medvedev’s comments from Poland.

outrageous
I mean, you’re probably not Medvedev’s target audience. I don’t follow Russian politics, but I expect that he’s talking to a portion of Russia’s electorate that enjoys him saying things like that and doesn’t consider it to be outrageous.
Lol, does all of Russia suffer from short man syndrome? They clearly know that they’re just blowing smoke because any attack on Poland would trigger article 5 and get their shit stomped in. They can’t even get through Ukraine, what makes them think they can take on even one NATO power, let alone NATO itself?
Tbf there are non-militarily ways to bring down a country. Like election meddling and so on.
Tricky to do in a country that just had one.
he didnt even, or even failing to, conquered Ukraine and already threatens Poland? What a stupid Muppet with allusions of grandeur.
Yeah, and we must not forget that Poland is a Nato member.
How is it still news what Medvedev saying?
This guy is spewing out the most insane pro-government propaganda ever since he left office, because he knows that he’s leaving the building through a window if he ever stops. During his presidency he dared to criticize Russia (and by that the former government, so Putin et al) and took a more western stance.
He’s a puppet and will never say anything sane again in his life.
He was a seat warmer put in place while term limits were still a thing and Putin had to bounce between higher offices.

I think the point is to highlight how ridiculous and dangerous Kremlin propaganda targeted at Russians is.
That’s a fight everyone/no one should want to see. Russia would get absolutely stomped on the ground, but Poland would be staring down the barrel of a missile silo.
Gonna be honest with ya fam, some of the Polish people who have talked about it seem pretty hyped at the idea.
We like to fantasise about wiping the floor with Russians by triggering article 5. However, no one wants to experience the harshness of war.
Especially nuclear war.
Couldn’t Poland just say:
Currently, Poland would murderfuck #Ruzzia before the rest of NATO could get their shoes on.
Considering America has been ramping up it’s presence there since the beginning of the Ukraine war, Poland would not be fighting that battle alone from the start
Even more wishful thinking on Russia’s side. They can barely take on a non-NATO country, Ukraine, yet they dream of somehow attacking Poland… This is not even hilarious at this point, just sad.
‘We’re gonna invade you,’ says KGB grandpa, in latest advertisement for NATO membership.
Just after elections in Poland. Coincidence?
Classic trolling by Medvedev
When you are in a talk delusional challenge and your opponent is Bedwetjev.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
MOSCOW, Nov 2 (Reuters) - A top ally of President Vladimir Putin warned Poland on Thursday that the NATO member state was now considered a “dangerous enemy” by Russia and could end up losing its statehood if it continued on its current course.
Former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev, now deputy chairman of Russia’s Security Council, made the comments in an 8,000-word article on Russian-Polish relations, saying Moscow now had a “dangerous enemy” in Poland.
“History has more than once delivered a merciless verdict to the presumptuous Poles: no matter how ambitious the revanchist plans may be, their collapse could lead to the death of Polish statehood in its entirety.”
Poland, which has backed Ukraine, accuses Russia of trying to destabilise the country with disinformation campaigns and espionage.
Moscow has condemned what it sees as Warsaw’s hostile stance towards it and Russian interests in Poland.
Diplomats say his views give an indication of thinking at the top levels of the Kremlin elite.

Oh yay an authoritarian wants control of Poland. That bodes well
