(MOSCOW)<\/span><\/strong> – Russian state radio host Vladimir Solovyov has called for calm among the Russian public following a drone attack on Moscow, while simultaneously advocating for nuclear strikes on Europe and accusing Ukrainians of seeking to inflict a strategic defeat on Russia.<\/span><\/p>\n

During his programme “Full Contact” on Russian radio, Mr Solovyov addressed listeners as air defence systems were reportedly engaging drones over the capital. He described the situation as “war” and asserted that Ukraine, acting as a proxy for Nato countries, was attempting to destabilise Russian society and strengthen its own offensive capabilities.<\/span><\/p>\n

Mr Solovyov warned that the public would face psychological pressure and calls to question the Russian leadership. He dismissed such sentiment as predictable and advised Russians to refrain from “hysteria” at a personal level. He suggested that those unable to endure the pressure should leave the country, accusing potential emigrants of following “the path of traitors” and joining “Vlasovite ranks” – a reference to Soviet-era collaborators with Nazi Germany.<\/span><\/p>\n

Responding to a listener’s question about how to remain calm while the capital is under attack, Mr Solovyov argued that hysteria served no purpose and urged citizens to join the armed forces instead. He referenced a purported public desire to use nuclear weapons, stating that 90 percent of Russians supported such action. <\/span><\/p>\n

He expressed his personal conviction that nuclear strikes were “necessary and inevitable” and dismissed criticism from military figures who questioned the consequences of radioactive fallout, describing such concerns as “a disgrace.”<\/span><\/p>\n

Mr Solovyov quoted Soviet dictator Josef Stalin, stating that “panic-mongers and cowards should be exterminated on the spot.” He argued that Russian society must unite and make decisions to strike targets in Europe and deploy more powerful weapons against Ukrainian territory. He framed the current situation as a moment requiring national resolve and a willingness for self sacrifice, drawing parallels to the Second World War.<\/span><\/p>\n

The host acknowledged that the attacks were likely to continue, describing a “heavy moment” that required analysis rather than panic. He also called for Russian state television to reduce entertainment programming and focus more on the reality of the war, stating that “the time for dancing is over.”<\/span><\/p>\n

Concluding his monologue, Mr Solovyov said the attacks involved multiple drones of varying speeds, suggesting that Ukraine was testing new approaches. He then handed over to a weather forecast, stating that the programme would continue its “serious systemic discussions” later in the day.<\/span><\/p>\n

The weather presenter, Evgeny Tishkovets, expressed solidarity with Mr Solovyov’s views, saying that Russia was “gathering its Russian lands” and that the struggle would continue “until the victorious end.”<\/span><\/p>\n
