Former President Dmitry Medvedev has sharply condemned Trump’s threat of new sanctions against Russia over the Ukraine invasion, calling it reckless and escalatory. The Russian leader’s criticism comes as the U.S. administration prepares to deploy nuclear-capable submarines in a show of military strength. These submarines, equipped with advanced missile systems, are part of a broader strategy to deter Russian aggression and reinforce NATO alliances.
Medvedev’s remarks highlight the growing tensions between the U.S. and Russia, with both sides accusing each other of escalating the conflict. The use of nuclear submarines adds a new dimension to the strategic rivalry, raising concerns about potential miscalculations in military operations. Analysts warn that such deployments could heighten regional instability and increase the risk of unintended conflict.
