The US has deployed nuclear submarines to threaten Russia! Trump: Medvedev's remarks are too provocative, I just want to stop the Russia-Ukraine war.

Trump stated that Washington has instructed two nuclear submarines to head to the "appropriate area" in response to the "extremely provocative" remarks made by Dmitry Medvedev, Vice Chairman of the Security Council of the Russian Federation. (Background: Trump threatens Russia: If Russia and Ukraine do not cease fire within 50 days, the U.S. will impose 100% "secondary tariffs"!) (Additional context: Is this for real? Putin suddenly announces a "30-hour Easter ceasefire" in the Russia-Ukraine war! Bitcoin breaks 85,000 dollars) U.S. President Trump posted on his social media platform Truth Social on August 2, noting that two nuclear submarines have been instructed to head to the "appropriate area" in response to Dmitry Medvedev's "extremely provocative" remarks: Due to the highly provocative statements made by Dmitry Medvedev, former president of the Russian Federation and current Vice Chairman of the Security Council, I have ordered the deployment of two nuclear submarines to an appropriate area to prevent these foolish and incendiary comments from becoming reality. Words are extremely important and can often lead to unexpected consequences; I hope this will not be one of those cases. The community's comments quickly escalated to nuclear deterrence This incident traces back to July 28. At that time, Medvedev warned Trump on the X platform, "Don't forget that Russia has powerful forces," and stated that each ultimatum "is a step towards war." Moreover, Medvedev even hinted at the Soviet Union's nuclear retaliation system during the Cold War known as the "Dead Hand." Trump is playing the ultimatum game with Russia: 50 days or 10 days… He should remember two things: 1. Russia isn't Israel or even Iran. 2. Each new ultimatum is a threat and a step towards war. Not between Russia and Ukraine, but with his own country. Don't go down the Sleepy Joe road! — Dmitry Medvedev (@MedvedevRussiaE) July 28, 2025 A magnifying glass on the Ukraine situation The background of the incident cannot be separated from Ukraine. Trump previously issued an ultimatum, demanding that the Russian military cease fire within two weeks after July 29, or face comprehensive sanctions. In contrast, Medvedev's tough response can be seen as a direct response to the deadline set by Trump. Regarding the Russia-Ukraine war, Trump also commented on Truth Social, stating that he only wants to stop this war: I just learned that nearly 20,000 Russian soldiers have died in the ridiculous war with Ukraine this month. Since the beginning of this year, Russia has lost 112,500 soldiers. This is a massive amount of unnecessary death! However, Ukraine has also suffered huge losses. Since January 1, 2025, around 8,000 Ukrainian soldiers have died, not including the missing. Civilians in Ukraine have also been casualties, but the numbers are smaller, as Russian rockets have attacked Kyiv and other regions in Ukraine. This is a war that should never have happened — this is Biden's war, not "Trump's." I just came to see if I could stop this war! The fragile test of global order As the two major nuclear-armed nations globally, the dialogue between Trump and Medvedev undoubtedly adds a touch of unease to an already tense global political and economic order. Although there is a general expectation that the conflict between the two sides will likely remain at the level of warnings and threats, and will not immediately escalate into real conflict, the confrontation between the U.S. and Russia, as well as the subsequent developments in the Russia-Ukraine war, if new conflicts arise, will undoubtedly be a sword hanging over the current stock market and cryptocurrency market.
