He is the head of state, the head of the United States. We have our president in this regard. We pay attention first and foremost to the statements of our president, Peskov said at a press conference.

He emphasized that Russia pays attention to and is actively engaged in the development of its military-industrial complex.

On the same day, Trump said that the US has a significant advantage over other countries in the construction of nuclear submarines, which he estimated at 25 years. Trump also added that the United States is a leader in the development of quantum technologies, artificial intelligence, and nuclear weapons.

In early October, on the 3rd, US Energy Secretary Chris Wright announced that due to the temporary suspension of federal government funding, the National Nuclear Security Administration was experiencing a shortage of funds to maintain control over the nuclear arsenal, which would last for approximately eight days.

Recall that Trump plans to reduce tariffs against China. Donald Trump arrived in Malaysia for the ASEAN summit. Trump intends to conduct a ground operation in Venezuela. The US president said that it would be an honor for him to end the conflict in Ukraine.
