Donald Trump News: The ongoing war in Ukraine has taken a new turn on the global stage, where the US and Russia are now face to face with each other. The recent rhetoric between US President Donald Trump and former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev has made the situation more tense. In this article, we will discuss the key points of this development in detail.Trump's deadline and Medvedev's responseUS President Donald Trump had earlier given Russia a deadline of 50 days to stop the war in Ukraine, which he later reduced to 10 days. Former Russian President and currently Deputy Chairman of the Security Council of the Russian Federation Dmitry Medvedev reacted sharply to this ultimatum. He tweeted on X:"Trump is playing a game of ultimatums with Russia: 50 days or 10... He should remember two things:Russia is not Israel or Iran.Every new ultimatum is a threat and a step towards war. Not between Russia and Ukraine, but with his own country. Don't go the way of Sleepy Joe (Joe Biden)!"This statement by Medvedev not only questioned Trump's policy but also termed it as a step towards war.Medvedev's reply to US SenatorUS Senator Lindsey Graham also gave his opinion on the issue and tweeted on X:"For those in Russia who believe that President Trump is not serious about ending the bloodshed between Russia and Ukraine. You and your clients will soon be proven tragically wrong. You will also soon see that Joe Biden is no longer President. Come to the peace negotiating table."In response, Medvedev said in a more stern tone:"It is not your or Trump's job to decide when the 'peace talks' will begin. The talks will end when all the objectives of our military campaign are achieved. Work on America first!"This statement of Medvedev makes Russia's position clear that it will not change its policy under external pressure.Trump's counterattack and deployment of nuclear submarinesAngry with Medvedev's statements, Trump first warned him and said:"Russia's failed former President Medvedev, who still considers himself the President, should be made to pay attention to his words. He is entering a very dangerous area!"After this, Trump took a big step and ordered the deployment of two nuclear submarines. In his statement, he said:"Taking into account the extremely provocative statements of former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev, who is now Deputy Chairman of the Security Council of the Russian Federation, I have ordered two nuclear submarines to be deployed in the necessary areas. This is so that these foolish and provocative statements do not remain just that. Words are very important, and can often lead to unintended consequences, I hope this will not be one of those examples."Global impact and future prospectsTrump's move has raised concerns in the global community. Many experts consider the deployment of nuclear submarines as a dangerous signal, which can further increase tensions. Medvedev's statements and Trump's response have made it clear that both sides are adamant on their positions.The war in Ukraine has already affected millions of people, and now this new tension has further complicated the prospects of peace. The international community is now watching to see whether this tension will further provoke war or whether diplomatic efforts will lead to a solution.
