Quote from Medvedev: "UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has arrived in Kyiv to sign a 'historic security agreement'. How would the Western public react to the fact that the UK delegation came under fire from cluster munitions in the centre of Kyiv, as happened to the civilians of our Belgorod? (according to Russian propaganda – ed.)"
