- The United States has given Russia for 10 days to end the Ukrainian war or be struck by prices.
- Kremlin shows no signs of acceptance of Trump’s ceasefire ultimatum.
- Medvedev rejects Trump’s threat as a “game”, warns nuclear force.
US President Donald Trump said on Friday that he had ordered two nuclear submarines to be transferred to the “appropriate regions” in response to the threats of former Russian president Dmitry Medvedev.
“I ordered that two nuclear submarines are positioned in the appropriate regions, just in case these stupid and inflammatory statements are more than simply,” said Trump in an article on social networks that qualified very provocative medvedeve declarations.
He said he had ordered that the submarines move “in case these stupid and inflammatory statements are more than that.
Words are very important and can often cause involuntary consequences. I hope it will not be one of these cases. “”
Trump and Medvedev, who is vice-president of the Russian Security Council, has exchanged mockery in recent days after Trump said on Tuesday that Russia had “10 days from today” to accept a cease-fire in Ukraine or be touched, as well as its oil buyers, with prices.
Moscow, who established her own terms for peace in Ukraine, has shown no sign that she would respect the deadline of Trump.
Medvedev accused Trump on Monday of engaging in an “ultimatum game” and reminded him that Russia had nuclear strike capacities of the Soviet era after Trump told Medvedev to “monitor his words”.
Medvedev has become one of the most Frankish anti-Western hawks in the Kremlin since Russia sent tens of thousands of soldiers to Ukraine in 2022.
Kremlin criticisms hid him as an irresponsible loose cannon, although some Western diplomats say that his statements illustrate thought in the circles of the development of Kremlin policies.
