Dmitry Medvedev, deputy chairman of Russia's ‌Security Council, said that U.S. President Donald Trump was ⁠an effective leader who was genuinely seeking peace but that Moscow had seen ​no trace of nuclear submarines Trump said ‍he moved to Russian shores last year.

Speaking to Reuters, TASS and the WarGonzo ⁠Russian ‌war blogger ⁠in an interview, Medvedev praised Trump's courage ‍in resisting the U.S. establishment and said ​that the U.S. president's sometimes "brash" style was "effective".

Referring ⁠to Trump's August remarks that he ⁠had repositioned two nuclear submarines to appropriate regions in response to Medvedev's warning ⁠that throwing ultimatums at Russia was ⁠a ‌step towards war, Medvedev said: "We still haven't found them."
