Trump deploys American nuclear submarines while the War of Words with Russia degenerates – National
US President Donald Trump
Trump’s order has strongly intensified a battle on social networks with former Russian president Dmitry Medvedev, who is currently the vice-president of the Russian Security Council and is one of the most frank criticisms of Western allies in the United States and Ukraine.
“I ordered that two nuclear submarines are positioned in the appropriate regions, just in case these stupid and inappropriate statements are more than simply,” Trump wrote on his social website Truth.
“Words are very important and can often have involuntary consequences, I hope it will not be one of these cases.”
Trump and Medvedev exchanged beards all week after Trump said on Monday that Russia had “10 days from today” to accept a ceasefire in Ukraine or be struck by prices.
This deadline was shortened compared to a previous 50 -day calendar.
Medvedev posted on X on the same day that Trump was playing “a game of ultimatums” and warned “each new ultimatum is a step towards war”.
“Not between Russia and Ukraine, but with its own country,” added Medvedev.
Trump then posted on Truth Social early Thursday that Medvedev should “look at his words” and “enter a very dangerous territory!”

Medvedev said Thursday that Trump’s declaration has shown that Russia should continue its current policies, especially in Ukraine.
“If certain words of the former president of Russia trigger such a nervous reaction of the high and mountainous president of the United States, Russia does everything and will continue to follow its own path,” said Medvedev in an article on Telegram.
Trump should remember, he added: “how dangerous the” dead hand “can be dangerous”, a reference to a secret Russian command system designed to launch the nuclear missiles from Moscow if its leadership had been removed in a beheading strike.
Medvedev put an end to his post with an emoji who was crying.
The Pentagon has reproduced to the White House Declaration and Trump when he was asked by Global News which “appropriate regions”, nuclear submarines will be deployed and when they could arrive.
This decision was the last sign that Trump, who was criticized for looking for closer ties with Russia when he tried to negotiate the end of the Ukraine war, loses patience with Russian President Vladimir Putin while he resisted to go to a cease-fire.
On Friday, in a separate article, Trump noted that Russia and Ukraine have lost thousands of soldiers on the battlefield since the beginning of this year in what he called “this ridiculous war”.
“It’s a lot of unnecessary death!” Trump wrote, while also noting the civil death of Russian strikes on Ukrainian cities.
Trump said on Thursday that Russia and India – one of the biggest oil buyers in Russia as well as China – “can eliminate their dead savings together, for all that I care” and seemed to be tackling the restoration of American commercial links with Moscow.
“We have done very little with India, their prices are too high, among the highest in the world. Likewise, Russia and the United States are almost no matter together. Keep this so,” he said.
