US President Trump repositions nuclear submarines near Russia in response to Medvedev's statements.

US President Donald Trump ordered two nuclear submarines to be repositioned near Russia in response to "highly provocative statements" from former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev. Trump hopes the move will not lead to unintended consequences. This comes amid tensions over Russia's conflict with Ukraine and Trump's threat of new sanctions if Moscow does not agree to a ceasefire. The exact capabilities of the submarines are unclear, with the Pentagon keeping its nuclear assets' movements confidential.
