US President Donald Trump said Friday he was ordering two US Navy nuclear submarines to “appropriate regions,” in response to remarks by Dmitry Medvedev, Russia’s former president and current deputy chairman of its Security Council.
In what he called an effort to be “prepared,” Trump said in a Truth Social post that he had “ordered two Nuclear Submarines to be positioned in the appropriate regions, just in case these foolish and inflammatory statements are more than just that.”
The president did not specify what type of submarines were being moved or where to, and the Pentagon usually reveals little about any of its subs’ movements.
I really doubt Russia would telegraph a warning of imminent nuclear attack without some quid pro quo of bargaining. But Putin needs to worry that the oligarchs or the military will ask, "Why did we spend a million men, much of our conventional military, many of our strategic bombers, and drive two neutral neighbors into NATO. What did we get for this?"
I hope you have an emergency food and water supply just in case.
