WASHINGTON, Aug. 4 (Xinhua) -- U.S. President Donald Trump said Sunday that two nuclear submarines have arrived "where they have to be," two days after he ordered their deployment.
"I’ve already put out a statement, and the answer is, they are in the region ... where they have to be," Trump said.
Trump on Friday said on his Truth Social that he ordered two nuclear submarines "in the appropriate regions" following his spat with Dmitry Medvedev, former Russian president and deputy chair of the Security Council.
On July 28, Trump cut short the deadline for Moscow to end the conflict with Ukraine to "10 or 12 days" from the initial 50-day timeline, citing disappointment with "Moscow’s lack of willingness to compromise."
Later that day, Medvedev said Trump is playing an "ultimatum game with Russia," calling his threat "a step towards war ... with his own country."
