VLADIMIR Putin’s chief lapdog Dmitry Medvedev has threatened to turn Kyiv into a “giant melted spot” in a disturbing threat.

Speaking today the former Russian prime minister and close Putin ally said permission for Ukraine to fire the rockets over enemy lines would spark a fierce response on its capital.

Referring to Kyiv he wrote in a Telegram post: “And that would be it. A giant, grey, melted spot instead of ‘the mother of Russian cities’.”

He also ranted about how “Russia is showing patience” but that the West should not assume Putin would balk at “crossing the line” or triggering an “apocalypse” with nuclear weapons.

Medvedev just this week threatened to use hypersonic missiles to sink Britain if Zelensky’s armies were granted the go-ahead with UK Storm Shadow missiles.

Starmer left DC on Friday after the crunch talks – with no conclusive decision reached on the rockets.

A Western official has said no announcement will be made until the “first missile lands”, according to The Telegraph.

Starmer said the meeting was “long and productive” but failed to directly address questions on long-range missiles.

The most recent threat comes as Putin is being pushed to green light a nuclear bomb test as a wider warning to the West.

A leading Kremlin MP with links to the Russian army urged the delusional tyrant to carry out an atomic explosion at a test site.

“We need to carry out a nuclear explosion somewhere, at some testing ground,” demanded Andrei Kolesnik, who leads the ruling United Russia party.

He said: “Nuclear tests are currently prohibited in our country.

“But maybe people should see what all this actually leads to, they should hear. 

“If we lift the moratorium, maybe humanity will think twice.”

Such a test could be seen as a renewed warning against Nato over the possibility that the US and UK could allow Ukraine to fire their long-range missiles at targets deep inside Russia.

Putin warned this week that the shift in policy would mean war.

He said: “This would in a significant way change the very nature of the conflict… It would mean that Nato countries are at war with Russia.”

Britain and America have previously held back on loosening permissions because of a fear of Russian retaliation.

There are concerns that Putin’s so far empty threats over nuclear revenge could be realised if Western weapons struck targets on his soil.

Kremlin hardliners could also push for attacks against missile strongholds in Nato countries – such as an airbase in Poland.

This would invoke Nato’s Article 5 mutual defence clause – triggering a wider war with Russia.

Putin last year sent then defence minister Sergei Shoigu, now his top security aide, to Novaya Zemlya, a remote Arctic archipelago where Soviet nuclear tests were conducted in the Cold War. 

This was meant to indicate that the Kremlin is ready “if necessary” to conduct new nuclear tests for the first time since 1990.

Putin’s former space agency chief Dmitry Rogozin has also demanded tests are carried out at Novaya Zemlya. 

The Tsar Bomba – the most powerful nuclear bomb ever detonated – was tested there in October 1961.

The explosion was so large that it caused shock waves which circled the Earth multiple times, and its mushroom cloud rocketed more than 37 miles into the sky. 

“We must make sure that [the West’s] buttocks begin to shake with fear,” he said.

The White House summit came as Russia kicked out six British diplomats over claims of “spying”.

The Foreign Office slammed the accusations as “completely baseless”.

Russia sees Britain as leading the Western charge demanding the use of long-range weapons, with other countries far more reluctant.

Speaking after the DC meeting, Starmer said: “We’ve had a long and productive discussion on a number of problems, including Ukraine, as you’d expect, the Middle East, and the Indo-Pacific, talking strategically about tactical decisions.

“This isn’t about a particular decision but we’ll obviously pick up again in UNGA (UN General Assembly) in just a few days’ time with a wider group of individuals, but this was a really important invitation from the president to have this level of discussion about those critical issues.”
