Medvedev says Western claims of a Russian or Chinese threat to Greenland are false 'horror stories'

Dmitry Medvedev, deputy chairman of ‌Russia's Security Council, said that Western claims of ⁠a Russian or Chinese threat to Greenland were false "horror stories" made up ​by Western leaders to justify ‍their own behaviour.

"This so called threat from Russia and the People's Republic of ⁠China ‌is ⁠simply a horror story," Medvedev told ‍Reuters, TASS and the WarGonzo Russian ​war blogger in an interview ⁠at his residence outside Moscow.

"This is indeed ⁠a serious challenge for Atlantic unity," Medvedev said. "Perhaps everything will ⁠go according to a calmer scenario before ⁠military ‌intervention and fighting within the NATO bloc."
