💨 Abstract

In response to provocative statements by Dmitry Medvedev, former Russian president and now deputy chairman of Russia’s National Security Council, U.S. President Donald Trump ordered the repositioning of two nuclear submarines. The move is seen as a warning to Russia amidst escalating tensions. Trump has also sent a special envoy to Russia to negotiate a ceasefire in the ongoing war with Ukraine, threatening new economic sanctions if progress isn't made.
