Respected Russian citizens!
"You without doubt know about the tragedy in South Ossetia. The nighttime artillery attack of Tskhinvali by Georgian troops led to the deaths of hundreds of our peaceful citizens. Russian peacekeepers, who carried out their duty to defend women, children and elderly people to the end, died.
"The Georgian leadership violated the UN Charter, their obligations under international treaties, ignored common sense, and launched a military conflict in which civilians became the victims. A similar fate awaited Abkhazia. Apparently, Tbilisi counted on a blitzkrieg, which would hand the world a fait accompli: the most inhumane means to achieve their goal of taking over South Ossetia at the price of exterminating a whole people.
"This was not the first attempt. In 1991, Georgian President Gamsakhurdia gave the order to storm Sukhumi and Tskhinvali under the motto 'Georgia for Georgians.' Just think about these words. It was Russia which then stopped the extermination of the Abkhaz and Ossetian people. Our country has become a mediator and peacekeeper which was looking for a political settlement. But we always proceeded from a recognition of Georgia's territorial integrity.
"The Georgian leadership has chosen a different path. Undermining talks, ignoring signed agreements, political and military provocations, attacks on peacekeepers -- all this flagrantly violated the regime in the conflict zones established with the support of the United Nations and OSCE.
"Russia has shown restraint and patience. We have more than once called for a return to the negotiating table and did not depart from our position even after the unilateral declaration of Kosovo's independence. But our insistent calls to the Georgian side to sign agreements on the nonuse of force with Abkhazia against South Ossetia remained unanswered. Unfortunately, they were ignored by NATO and even by the United Nations.
"It is clear now: a peaceful solution of the conflict was not part of Tbilisi's plans. The Georgian leadership has been methodically preparing for war, while political and material help from outside mentors only strengthened its feeling of impunity.
"On the night of August 8, 2008, Tbilisi made its choice. Saakashvili chose genocide to solve his political tasks. Thus he killed with his own hands all hopes for the peaceful coexistence of Ossetians, Abkhazians, and Georgians in one state. The peoples of South Ossetia and Abkhazia have more than once spoken out in r

Idk if I took the right flair, but I am seeing a lot of memes how Dmitry Medvedev is some kind of Russian ultra-nationalist, or generally revanchist; while as far as I am aware, he is one of the nicest in the Kremlin
Such as this
Or this
So the story behind this is basically "after doing some on-camera interviews, he gets asked what he thinks is off-camera whether aliens exist."

His answer is that they do and the first thing you find out as President is that they exist, who they are, and that there are lots of them blended in to the population. At the time it wasn't taken seriously because he says to watch the documentary Men In Black to find out more, but he was actually referencing a documentary of that name that had just aired in Russia:

The translation is obviously from somebody with iffy English so I'm hoping somebody here can confirm that it's more or less accurate in what he's conveying.
The Russians have just as much knowledge about the topic as the American government. Remember comments from Dmitry Medvedev from 2015? He is one of its leading politicitians there and has been the Deputy Chairman of the Security Council of Russia since 2020. I just watched it after a long time and now it doesn't seem like he was joking. Here's the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dYXlXCq9QTk
By the way - the reference to Men in Black that he makes - is not the Hollywood movie. Its actually this Russian doc (with English sub-titles). The doc is pretty good. Here's the link to that one as well. https://youtu.be/uOSrModo3hs
Here's a video of an interview with the former Russian Prime Minister where he claimed aliens are already with us and that we have some sort of working relationship with them.
The media reported that Medvedev was joking, but in this interview there are no indicators that he is. In the interview he recommends the documentary called Men in Black for more information. Many assumed he was jokingly rereferring to the Hollywood movie Men in Black with Will Smith--but I found an actual Russian documentary with the same name which can be found here:
This documentary is interesting for many reasons, but one of the things that stood out to me is its view on Roswell. According to the documentary, the US made contact with aliens and was given an aircraft and four alien humanoids, and then Roswell happened. Roswell was an orchestrated event by the US with a spy balloon (that spied on Russia) to cover up the fact that the US had already made contact with aliens (referred to as the Tall Whites and their representatives). It even makes mention of a meeting between Dwight D. Eisenhower and these aliens at an Air Force base. In exchange for the aircraft, relationship, and other technology, the aliens asked to experiment on 2% of the population with the stipulation that they'd erase the experience of being experimented on from those they choose to abduct.
There is other information in the documentary, and I haven't even finished watching it. I just wanted to give you guys a heads up ASAP.
How well do you think Dmitry did in office and how does he compare with the incumbent president?
'The online journal russland.capital has reported that the Chair of the United Russia Party, Dmitry Medvedev, has initiated a discussion about Basic Income.
>Dmitry Medvedev, vice-chairman of the Security Council and chairman of the United Russia Party, proposed a discussion on the introduction of a basic income in Russia during an online meeting broadcast on the partyโs website. โWhat is meant by this is the inviolability of this minimum amount of money that the state pays a person regardless of the type of activity and social and economic status,โ said Medvedev. โฆ โThe pandemic has shown [...]'
