Breaking news. Trump orders two nuclear submarines moved near Russia after Medvedev warning
In a social media post, Trump said the deployment was in response to threats from the country’s former President Dmitry Medvedev.
US President Donald Trump said on Friday that he had ordered two nuclear submarines to move to regions close to Russia in response to threats from the country’s former President Dmitry Medvedev.
“I have ordered two Nuclear Submarines to be positioned in the appropriate regions, just in case these foolish and inflammatory statements are more than just that,” Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social.
The deployment comes after Medvedev, currently serving as deputy chairman of Russia’s Security Council, warned Trump on Thursday to remember that Moscow had Soviet-era nuclear strike capabilities of last resort.
