Andrey Gurulev, a pro-Putin MP and retired Lieutenant General, and Vladimir Solovyov spoke on state TV to call for a nuclear attack on London, or a massive atomic bomb test on the remote Arctic archipelago of Novaya Zemlya.

Gurulev, 57, appeared on ‘Pryamoy efir’ to blast Trump for posing as ‘the master of the world’ over yesterday’s demands to end the ‘ridiculous’ war in Ukraine or face tougher sanctions.

Trump had qualified the threats by saying Putin, with whom he had ‘always had a very good relationship’, was ‘destroying his country’ after nearly three years of conflict.

“Back off Americans or I’ll nuke England. And if that doesn’t work I’ll have to nuke France.”

I’m sorry, what??
