The Kremlin responded cautiously to U.S. President Donald Trump's order to reposition nuclear submarines, urging restraint in nuclear rhetoric and emphasizing the importance of diplomacy during rising tensions over Ukraine.
In its first public reaction on Monday, the Kremlin downplayed the significance of Trump’s comments. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov stated, "We would not want to get involved in such a controversy and would not want to comment on it in any way."
He added, "Of course, we believe that everyone should be very, very careful with nuclear rhetoric."
Peskov noted that the U.S. submarines are 'already on combat duty,' calling it an ongoing process rather than a significant shift.
The Kremlin emphasized it does not interpret Trump’s move as an escalation, saying, "It is clear that very complex, very sensitive issues are being discussed, which, of course, are perceived very emotionally by many people."
The developments come as Trump threatens new sanctions on Russia and its oil buyers, such as India and China, unless Russian President Vladimir Putin agrees to end the war in Ukraine by Friday. Putin has acknowledged some progress in peace talks but maintains that Russia currently holds the momentum.
