Global tensions surged this week as Donald Trump ordered two U.S. nuclear submarines to move closer to Russian waters, in direct response to inflammatory remarks made by former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev. The latter had hinted at preemptive nuclear readiness during a closed-door military speech, which was later leaked.
Trump, never one to back down from a challenge, reportedly gave the order late last night. The Pentagon confirmed the repositioning but downplayed its intent, calling it “routine deterrence operations.”
However, experts warn this is anything but routine. With Ukraine still under siege and NATO forces on high alert, the slightest misstep could trigger a major international incident.
This is the most significant escalation between the U.S. and Russia since the Cold War, and it’s sparking fear and fascination online. Hashtags like #WW3 and #SubmarineFlex are trending globally.
