"Can't we finally strike at London? What is the problem?" Vladimir Solovyov asked his audience during a segment of his show. The video was posted to Twitter with English subtitles by Anton Gerashchenko, an adviser to the minister of internal affairs of Ukraine.

"In this case we will not recognize at all—for us then there is no England at all. No France. No Germany. Instead, there are Nazi states united by hatred for everything Russian.
