Russian State television guests suggested that Russian President Vladimir Putin should deploy missiles, targeting countries that support Ukraine amid the ongoing war between the two countries.
Recently, a controversial discussion on a Russian state television, Russia 1 channel, sparked global outrage after Russian guests raised the prospect of Moscow, deploying missiles that will target the Western countries
During the discussion, retired Russian general Yevgeny Buzhinsky suggested that the Putin administration should deploy deadly weapons such as the Poseidon and Burevestnik missiles and target the West for continuously supporting Ukraine.
Buzhinsky suggested the move even if Western countries would not be ready for service until “the next year or two.”
In the statement, Buzhinsky claimed that “Poseidon has already been tested,” to which anchor Vladimir Solovyov responded, saying that he would like to see it in action.
“We would like to, of course,” Buzhinsky replied.

Last January, Russian state agencies reported that “the first set of Poseidon nuclear-capable super torpedoes was being developed for deployment on the Belgorod nuclear submarine. First announced by Vladimir Putin in 2018, United States and Russian officials have both described Poseidon as being capable of triggering radioactive ocean swells to render coastal cities uninhabitable,” Newsweek wrote in its exclusive report.
The evening show guests with Vladimir Solovyov have repeatedly made threats about Russia’s nuclear capabilities. They also claimed that the Russian President’s invasion of Ukraine was a proxy war between Moscow and NATO.
According to Solovyov, he would like to “see Sarmat in action too.” In the statement, Solovyov was referring to the hypersonic nuclear-capable missile called “Satan 2” which became controversial after Putin boasted about it previously.
Moreover, Buzhinsky also warned the audience that if Western countries would continue to get involved with Ukraine amid the latter’s ongoing war against Russia,
it will “all end with Poseidon and a tsunami, a 300 or 500-meter wave.”
Solovyov also affirmed Buzhinsky’s warning, saying “yes, Great Britain will definitely be no more, I’m talking about the United States,” to which Solovyov jokes, saying “If [ Rishi] Sunak is washed away, who will [Emmanuel] Macron have left to kiss,” referring to the close relationship between the British prime minister and the French president.
