– one more time (Trump – ed.) showed the full planet that the "nuclear rod" is in his hands. This is simply a method of intimidation, but it does not endanger any action," said Wiktor Wodołocki, Vice-President of the Committee on State Duma for CIS, Eurasian Integration and Relations with Poles.
In an interview with the TASS agency, a Kremlin typical pointed out that "the effort to origin fear among Russians makes no sense". “Those who intimidated came to the Kremlin and signed treaties on relationship and good neighbourly relations,” said Wodołocki.
The Kremlin responds to Trump's decision. They say it's just intimidation.
He besides pointed out that there are much more Russian submarines in the waters than the American ones, and those that Trump has now sent are closely monitored by Moscow. –
Our submarines on the oceans of the planet are much more many and have the strongest, most powerful weapons. Therefore, let 2 boats (American – ed.) sail, they have long been at gunpoint," he said.
Wodołocki suggested that Trump should negociate with Putin, which would aim to "make the full planet calm and end talks about the start of planet War III".
Trump changed the terms of the ultimatum for Russia
Let us remind you that a fewer days ago Donald Trump changed the terms of the ultimatum set by Russia. He announced that he was giving Putin 10 days to suspend his arms in Ukraine. Otherwise, it will impose duties and sanctions on Russia and its trading partners.
"Every fresh Trump ultimatum is simply a threat and a step towards war. Not between Russia and Ukraine, but Russia and its own country" – Dmitri Medvedev responded.
Trump didn't gotta wait long. "I have ordered the deployment of 2 atomic submarines in the respective regions, in case these unreasonable and inciting statements have more serious consequences," wrote the US president in social media.
He did not neglect to explain that this is connected "with the highly provocative statements of erstwhile Russian president Dmitri Medvedev". "Words are of large importance and can frequently lead to unintended effects. I hope it won't be 1 of these cases" – Trump signed.
