Former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev has fiercely attacked Donald Trump in a provocative post on social networks, questioning the recent maneuvers of American nuclear submarines, in a statement that quickly went viral.
Medvedev, who now serves as deputy chairman of Russia's Security Council, wrote: "Where did you send those submarines? On Epstein Island?" – a sharp remark, apparently aimed at both Trump's military rhetoric and the re-emergence of controversies related to the late financier Jeffrey Epstein.
The comment comes after Trump's recent assertion that the United States is "fully prepared" for any nuclear confrontation with Russia, a statement that has drawn criticism and raised global concerns about escalating tensions between the two nuclear powers.
Medvedev, known for his witty and often sarcastic online posts, did not provide more details, leaving many to interpret his remark as a combination of political provocation and personal attack on Trump, referring to long-circulating conspiracy theories involving Epstein's private island.
This exchange underscores the increasingly personal nature of U.S.-Russia rhetoric, where political debates are intertwined with internet-fueled controversies and viral phrases.
So far, Trump has not responded to Medvedev's latest comment.
