Medvedev reminded Trump about Russia's nuclear capabilities and the 'Dead Hand' system after Trump made provocative comments.

Dmitry Medvedev has responded to Donald Trump's comments, pointing out that Russia has nuclear capabilities and uses the 'Dead Hand' system, which allows nuclear missiles to be launched in the event of a devastating attack. Trump mocked Medvedev, suggesting that Medvedev should weigh his words, and Medvedev said Trump's reaction proves that Russia is following the right path. The 'Dead Hand' system provides an automatic response to an attack, bypassing hierarchies of command and giving decision-making power to the person at the controls.
