💬Former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev has commented on a purported statement made on his behalf and published on a fake website of the United Russia party:

"Fakes create an alternative universe. It is especially pleasant that fake news about United Russia is paid for directly from the State Department.

The destruction of Starlink satellites is a fresh idea, thanks. It is too early to do it, but if there is such a request, we will consider it😂", Medvedev said.
