Response to Russia’s Nuclear Blackmail: Trump Orders Two Submarines to be Sent to ‘Appropriate Regions’
US President Donald Trump has ordered the deployment of two nuclear submarines to the ‘appropriate regions’ after an argument with former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev.
He added that “words are very important” and “often lead to unforeseen consequences.”
“Based on the highly provocative statements of the Former President of Russia, Dmitry Medvedev, who is now the Deputy Chairman of the Security Council of the Russian Federation, 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 on his social network Truth Social.
On July 28, Dmitry Medvedev on the social network ‘X’ (formerly Twitter) got into a debate with U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham, who advocates new sanctions against Russia.
In response to Washington’s calls to reduce the timeframe for reaching an agreement on Ukraine from 50 to 10 days, Medvedev called it a ‘threat’ and a ‘step toward war’ between Russia and the United States. He also insultingly called Trump and Graham ‘grandfathers.’
On July 31, Trump called the economies of Russia and India – one of the largest importers of Russian oil – ‘dead’ on Truth Social.
He also called on Medvedev, a “failed ex-president of Russia who thinks he’s still president,” to “watch his words.” “He is entering very dangerous territory,” Trump emphasized.
On the same day, Medvedev responded on his Telegram channel: “Russia is right in everything and will continue to go its own way” if “some words of the former president of Russia cause such a nervous reaction in such a formidable US president.”
He also added: “As for the ‘dead economy’ India and Russia and the ‘dangerous territory’ – let him remember his favorite movies about the ‘walking dead’ and how dangerous the ‘dead hand’ can be, which supposedly does not exist in nature.”
The so-called ‘Dead Hand’ in the United States and Europe is the Soviet system for automatic control of a massive nuclear strike, Perimeter. The system was developed in the USSR, but is reportedly still in use in Russia.
This complex is designed to guarantee the transmission of commands to launch nuclear missiles even in the event of a loss of communication with command posts in an emergency.
Today, Russia also announced that the first mass-produced Oreshnik missile system was allegedly already in service.
