Russian Navy Deploys Nuclear Submarines Amidst Putin’s Visit to the U.S.

The Russian Navy has dispatched at least six nuclear submarines armed with intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs) as President Vladimir Putin embarks on a visit to Anchorage, Alaska, for discussions with U.S. President Donald Trump. This development, reported by sources affiliated with the Russian Defense Ministry, coincides with Putin’s arrival today at 10 p.m. Moscow time.

The deployment of these submarines is speculated to be either part of a scheduled military exercise or a precautionary response amid escalating geopolitical tensions. The agenda of the high-stakes talks between the two leaders focuses on addressing the ongoing conflict in Ukraine and other pressing international security matters.

As of now, there has been no official statement from the Russian Defense Ministry or the Kremlin regarding the submarines’ deployment.

The international community is closely monitoring the situation, especially in light of ongoing diplomatic efforts aimed at stabilizing relations and addressing security concerns.
