The Kremlin ignores the submarines sent by Trump near the coasts of Russia. “It does not represent a new threat”

Politicians and experts close to Kremlin have minimized two American nuclear submarines near Russia, a movement announced by US President Donald Trump on Friday, DPA reports on Saturday.

The two submarines “do not represent a new threat” to the national security of Russia, the former Air Force General and the current deputy Leonid Ivlev said on Saturday, adding that Russia is fully aware of these US military maneuvers.

Another parliamentarian, Viktor Vodolațki, was of the same opinion, stressing that any attempt to intimidate Russia is useless and reminding the size of its nuclear submarines.

Trump said he ordered the submarines in response to the comments made by former Russian president Dmitri Medvedev, whom he described as “provocative”.

The former Russian president on Thursday sent to the US President to remember that Russia has nuclear attack capabilities in the Soviet era that could use as the last solution, after Trump told Medvedev to “measure his words”, in an exchange of replicas that occur while leaking to the US Ultimatum that the US President gave Vladim.

Where the submarines will be sent is unclear, notes DPA. In his post, Trump referred only to the “appropriate regions”.

The Kremlin, but also Medvedev kept the silence on submarines. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and other high -ranking Russian official bodies, which usually respond to the perceived threats, did not comment.

According to Vodolațki, there is no need for an official answer, as “everyone knows” that Trump frequently changes their position.

However, he wondered why an American president would react so harsh to the comments of a vice -president of a Security Council. What matters most, he added, is the need for a renewed agreement between Moscow and Washington to put an end to speculation about a possible World War.
