Russian Security Council Deputy Chairman Dmitry Medvedev stated on Friday that the country is currently going through tough "tests" amid the war in Ukraine and the rising tension with the US and its allies.

In a March 8 message for International Women's Day, the Russian official said that Russia is "going through very difficult tests, fighting back against a cynical and dangerous enemy, defending" the country "on the front and in the rear."

The statement comes days after a more pessimistic note when the official recognized that the present state of affairs between Moscow and Washington surpasses the tension seen during the 1962 Cuban missile crisis.
