"[Western countries are] using all means, and now they are using Ukraine as a battering ram to destroy Russia, and they are not hiding it," Medvedev said at the Territory of Meanings Forum. Russia can only be saved by a victory in the special military operation, the official said. Around 30,000 sanctions have been imposed against Russia, with pressure coming from "all angles," Medvedev said.

West Uses Ukraine as Battering Ram to Try to Destroy Russia - Russia's Medvedev
SOLNECHNOGORSK, Russia (Sputnik) - The West uses Ukraine as a battering ram to try to destroy Russia and is not even hiding this fact, Russian Deputy Security Council Chairman Dmitry Medvedev said on Wednesday.
"[Western countries are] using all means, and now they are using Ukraine as a battering ram to destroy Russia, and they are not hiding it," Medvedev said at the Territory of Meanings Forum.
Russia can only be saved by a victory in the special military operation, the official said.
"There was a period when they apparently believed that they would be able to come to a conditional agreement with us, but in fact they simply bend us to their will. Well, I mean, first of all, Western countries. But they failed. And they are experiencing the most severe disappointment," Medvedev said.
Around 30,000 sanctions have been imposed against Russia, with pressure coming from "all angles," Medvedev said.
"The number of sanctions imposed against the Russian Federation is prohibitive. There is no country in the world, nor has there ever been a country in history, that has imposed such a number of sanctions. Around 30,000," Medvedev said at the Territory of Meanings forum.
