From The Daily Wire:

“Based on the highly provocative statements of the Former President of Russia, Dmitry Medvedev, who is now the Deputy Chairman of the Security Council of the Russian Federation, I have ordered two Nuclear Submarines to be positioned in the appropriate regions, just in case these foolish and inflammatory statements are more than just that,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “Words are very important, and can often lead to unintended consequences, I hope this will not be one of those instances. Thank you for your attention to this matter!”

Medvedev, who is currently serving as Chairman of the Security Council of the Russian Federation, said earlier this week that Trump’s ultimatums to Russia were “a step towards war.”

President Trump has issued several ultimatums in an attempt to end the Russia-Ukraine war. Most recently, he shortened a 50-day deadline initially given to Putin, instructing the Russian President to secure peace by August 9.

Former Russian President has mocked the President’s ultimatums. The Daily Wire noted that he wrote in a social media post, “Trump issued a theatrical ultimatum to the Kremlin. The world shuddered, expecting the consequences. Belligerent Europe was disappointed. Russia didn’t care.” However, it is his mention of war that appeared to drive President Trump to dispatch nuclear submarines.

Peace in Europe seems to be closer than ever before, yet, at the same time, infinitely far away. Men are still dying in Ukraine, even as President Trump is working overtime to secure peace. Let’s pray that God softens Putin’s heart so that this war can come to an easy, diplomatic end.
