Former Russian president refers to Albania: Crisis will lead to a more violent

Albania took a stand against Russia after the war that President Vladimir Putin launched in Ukraine on February 24 this year. Tirana joined punitive Western and US sanctions by strongly condemning Russian aggression.

But Russian officials and former senior officials have often referred to the term "Albanian" and Albania itself. Recently, former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev, a figure quite close to Putin, referred to Albanians as he responded to European Commission President Ursula Von der Leyen.

Von der Leyen stated that the bankruptcy of the Russian state is only a matter of time, emphasizing that the sanctions imposed on Moscow are affecting Russia more and more.

Medvedev responded to Von der Leyen through a post on the Telegram. He blamed Europe for the economic crisis, saying that the lack of goods and emigration would lead to a more violent wave than Albanian crime.

"Hypothetical Russia can become hypothetical from Europe. Ethically, maybe financially. The EU financial system is very volatile and people's confidence is declining. And did not shake too much even in the memorable 2008, then it was very difficult. Expect the strong gratitude of ordinary Europeans for hyperinflation, for which the bad Russians can not be blamed, the lack of basic goods in stores and the influx of refugees, which will lead to a wave of violent crime worse than Albanian crime. "And then, in the well-maintained streets of European cities, tire fires will be burned in honor of Maidan heroes," Medvedev wrote, referring to Kiev's most iconic square.
