Medvedev's Hacker's Outrageous Tweets Before They Got Deleted

"I am resigning. I am embarrassed by the actions of the government. Forgive me."



The Twitter account of Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev was hacked early on Thursday morning, resulting in a flurry of satirical tweets announcing his resignation to become a freelance photographer and asking to retweet a comment saying "Crimea is not ours."



All of the tweets were taken offline after about 40 minutes.

"We could go back to the '80s. It is lamentable. If this is the aim of my colleagues in the Kremlin, it will soon be achieved."

"All the same, I will become a freelance photographer!"

"Despite our efforts, certain online hooligans don't give a [expletive] about [entering their passport data] to access the Internet."

"Russian citizens should not suffer because of the problems the country's leadership has in understanding common sense."

"And we will consider cutting off electricity. Much more reliable."

"You think that today they will say anything important in Yalta? I doubt it. And so I sit and think to myself, what the hell [am I doing here]?"

"Crimea is not ours, please retweet."
