Russia Backs Off Nuclear Threats and Kneecaps Putin's Attack Dog After Trump's Strong Reaction |
2025-08-05 |
[RedState] In an unprecedented move, Russian President Vladimir Putin has stepped into the spat between President Donald Trump and former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev to ensure that everyone knows that Russia is not threatening nuclear war over Trump assigning a deadline for Russia to begin talks with Ukraine.“Russia is very cautious about nuclear nonproliferation matters, and we believe everyone should be very careful about nuclear rhetoric,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Monday in his daily call with journalists, in which he cautioned against nuclear escalation. As I related in President Trump Orders Deployment of Nuclear Forces to Counter Russian Threats, Putin's attack dog, Dmitry Medvedev, took offense when President Trump announced he was "very disappointed" in Russian President Vladimir Putin's no longer pretending like he took Trump's crusade to end the war in Ukraine seriously. "I’m going to make a new deadline, of about 10, 10 or 12 days from today," Trump said. "There’s no reason for waiting. It was 50 days. I wanted to be generous, but we just don’t see any progress being made." In a message on X, Medvedev said: Trump's playing the ultimatum game with Russia: 50 days or 10… He should remember 2 things: As I noted in that post, Russia threatening a nuclear holocaust every time some alcoholic denizen of the Kremlin has bad borscht is what passes for diplomacy in Putin's Russia. Since the war began in Ukraine, Russian officials have threatened to nuke somebody or something over 70 times. Unlike in the past, when some parts of the West shivered and ran for cover, President Trump took a Reagan-esque position by tackling the threat head-on, using Truth Social as his vehicle. 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. 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! Later, Medvedev took another shot at Trump. About Trump's threats against me in his personal network Truth, which he banned from operating in our country. "Dead hand," of course, refers to the Russian system, developed during the Soviet era, for launching nuclear missiles without the order of political or military leadership. Trump ignored it, and then the most amazing thing happened. Medvedev disappeared from X. There are no further comments to anyone. In today's news briefing, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry "Pornstache" Peskov made it very clear that many people, like Medvedev, have harsh views about the United States, but national policy is made only by Putin. |
