Expert from Russia calls Trump’s acting “stupid”

Reactions from Russia

Trump acts “stupid and irresponsible”

After the announcement of Trump to move at nuclear submarines, Russia’s official reaction is still pending. In contrast, it becomes clearer in the Russian media.

According to the announcement by US President Donald Trump, two nuclear submarines in response to statements by Russian ex-President Dmitri Medvedev, a reaction from the Kremlin is still pending. So far, neither a ministry nor Kremlin spokesman Dmitri Peskow or President Vladimir Putin has expressed trumps plans.

In contrast, some military experts are quoted in Russian media. A commentator attested Trump in the newspaper “Moskowski Komsomolez” about a “tantrum”. A retired lieutenant general told the newspaper “Kommersant” that the US President’s talk about submarines was “senseless chatter. So he gets a kick.”

Another security expert doubts that Trump’s words will follow deeds at all: “I am sure that Trump did not give any real commands (to the submarines),” said another Russian security expert over the “Kommersant”.

Similar reactions followed by different politicians. This is not a danger to Russia’s security, said ex-general and Duma MP Leonid Iwlew of the state news agency TASS. The deployment of such US weapons is known to Russia.

The parliamentary member Viktor Wodolazki said that it was pointless to want to scare Russia. The nuclear power has far more and better equipped atom-submarines in the world’s oceans-and also target the US fleet.

MP Wodolazki said that Trump’s statements do not need an answer because it is clear to everyone that the US President constantly changes his opinion. Nevertheless, it is not clear why a president reacts to the words of a deputy chairman of a security council. Rather, more important is an agreement between Moscow and Washington, with which everything talk about a third world war ends.

The Kremlin political scientist Sergej Markow wrote at Telegram that Trump loses every measure “stupid and irresponsible”. In addition, the US President now agreed to Medvedev, who had warned of his statements on social media about a nuclear war. Trump also violates his promises to the US voters of wanting to end wars. Apparently, the Republican wants to distract from domestic political problems, including his role in investigating the affair about sex offenders Jeffrey Epstein.

In contrast, the military expert Juri Fjodorov in the Kremlin-critical Russian YouTube channel “The Breakfast Show” produced in the EU said that laying the two nuclear submarines in Russia’s proximity was very threatened.

If, for example, the submarines of the submarines move in front of Cyprus, the nuclear missiles only needed ten minutes to reach Central Russia. Kremlin boss Vladimir Putin, in his residence nowo-ogarjowo, could not wake up as quickly at the gates of Moscow at night and operate his atom case as his property was transformed into a nuclear crater, said Fyodorow.
