Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council Dmitry Medvedev spoke about the need to create a sanitary cordon ( buffer zone) on the border with Ukraine to protect the territory of the Russian Federation from shelling by the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
In a conversation with the TASS team, the official indicated that the width of the cordon will depend on the type of weapons that will be supplied to Ukraine by its Western partners.
“If they want to get long-range weapons, cruise and ballistic missiles, then this sanitary belt should extend to the entire depth, to Poland,” Medvedev believes.
On September 1, it became known that Ukrainian Defense Minister Rustem Umerov handed over to Washington a list of priority targets in Russia, which Kyiv proposes to strike if the United States lifts the ban on the use of American missiles in Russia’s rear areas
A buffer zone on the border with Ukraine is crucial to Russia to protect itself from shellings by the Ukrainian military and its width will depend on what type of weapons will be supplied to Kiev, the Deputy Chairman of Russia’s Security Council, Dmitry Medvedev, said at a meeting with TASS staff.

If they (Ukrainians - TASS) wish to get long-range means of attack, such as cruise and ballistic missiles, then this buffer zone should stretch as far as Poland," he said.
Медведев — об организации санитарного кордона на Украине до Польши: Очевидно, нам нужно просто на будущее создавать санитарный кордон для того, чтобы к нам ничего не летало. Какого размера он будет — никто не знает, но он должен быть необходимый и достаточный, чтобы эти средства не летали. Если они хотят получить дальнобойные средства поражения, если они хотят получить полноценный набор крылатых и даже баллистических ракет, тогда этот санитарный пояс должен простираться на всю глубину — ну а как иначе-то? Тогда до Польши, да.
