In one of his recent programs, Russian TV propagandist Vladimir Solovyov argued that „France, Poland and Britain are legitimate targets” and should be struck to prevent them from supplying tanks and armoured vehicles to Ukraine.
Solovyov encouraged Russian President Vladimir Putin to bomb France, the UK, and Poland, claiming that “full-scale World War 3” had already started. He stressed that the use of nuclear weapons was not to be the priority but an eventuality to be used in case of need.

He further underlined that Moscow would need to launch preemptive strikes on these three NATO states, otherwise Russia would soon be overrun by Western armoured vehicles and tanks.
Solovyov urged the Kremlin to view the deployment of Western tanks in Ukraine a red line not to be crossed by NATO members.

“Poland has taken the decision to send tanks! Britain has taken the decision too […] Any military target in France, Poland, or Britain should be considered a legitimate target for our strikes!” – he declared.
„If required, we should use tactical nuclear weapons. Will we wait for thousands of tanks to appear on our territory?” – Solovyov wondered?
Last week, former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev threatened Russian arm makers with up to ten years in prison if they failed to provide additional frontline firepower with armoured vehicles and tanks.
