Iran Press/ Europe: "How many politicians? Well, all of them! Every single politician in Europe is beholden to the United States! There is not a single politician who is not under their influence," Medvedev said at the Znanie (Knowledge) educational marathon.
According to Medvedev, the United States has for decades "conducted such training, established such a system of relations with European nations and put them in such a humiliating position that they cannot even imagine dropping from the system of coordinates in which the United States plays the leading role."
He said there was a simple explanation for this: Europe had voluntarily ceded economic control to Washington.
"Now and then, some words get spoken out over there [in Europe], <…> and they talk back, but as soon as Washington blows the whistle, everybody toes the line and obeys all commands," Medvedev concluded.
