In a response to U.S. President Donald Trump's recent statements on nuclear strategy, Russia has urged caution, emphasizing the need for measured rhetoric. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov addressed Trump's repositioning of nuclear submarines, stating this is part of an ongoing process and not a cause for alarm.

The remarks by Trump followed comments from former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev, which heightened concerns over nuclear tensions. Despite these exchanges, Russian officials aim to avoid escalating the situation, focusing instead on the broader diplomatic landscape amid discussions about ongoing conflicts and potential sanctions.

With peace talks making limited progress, President Trump has intensified pressure on Russia, threatening sanctions if President Vladimir Putin does not agree to cease hostilities in Ukraine. The situation remains tenuous, with strategic dialogues and diplomatic interactions continuing behind the scenes.
