Details: Medvedev believes Trump "is playing the ultimatum game with Russia" and should remember that Russia "isn't Israel or even Iran".

"Each new ultimatum is a threat and a step towards war. Not between Russia and Ukraine, but with his own country. Don't go down the Sleepy Joe road! [as political opponents have referred to Joe Biden]," he concluded.
