Trump Orders Nuclear Submarines Near Russia After Medvedev's Warning
UNITED STATES, AUG 3 – Trump deployed two nuclear submarines near Russia as a warning after Dmitry Medvedev issued nuclear threats amid stalled Ukraine ceasefire talks, marking a rare show of force.
- Two U.S. nuclear submarines were repositioned near Russia, Trump said in a Newsmax interview on Aug. 2, 2025.
- Amid stalled ceasefire talks, Medvedev warned that Trump’s reduction of the deadline from 50 to 10 days is 'a step towards war'.
- Writing on his Truth Social post on Friday, Trump wrote that he ordered two nuclear subs 'based on the highly provocative statements of the Former President of Russia, Dmitry Medvedev,' and Kimball called it 'irresponsible and inadvisable.'
- In Russia, markets reacted as the Moscow Exchange index fell 2,709.26 points by Friday, with Viktor Vodolatsky saying Russia has enough nuclear submarines to counter the U.S. move.
- By Aug. 8, 2025, the ceasefire deadline approaches, and experts warn this exchange heightens miscommunication risks between nuclear powers.
