Trump Says He Moved US Nuclear Subs After Barbs With Russia

President Donald Trump said the US is moving two nuclear submarines to respond to what he called “highly provocative statements” from former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev.

“I have ordered two Nuclear Submarines to be positioned in the appropriate regions, just in case these foolish and inflammatory statements are more than just that,” Trump said in a social media post Friday. “Words are very important, and can often lead to unintended consequences, I hope this will not be one of those instances.”
