# US president Donald Trump says he has ordered two nuclear submarines to be moved to the appropriate regions in response to comments by former Russian president Dmitry Medvedev. Medvedev has recently threatened the US in response to Trump’s ultimatums to Moscow to agree to a ceasefire in Ukraine, or face tough sanctions. Russia and the US possess the most nuclear arms in the world, and both countries have a fleet of nuclear submarines. Medvedev supports Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine launched in 2022, and is an outspoken critic of the West.
