Donald Trump criticized Vladimir Putin's announcement of a successful test of Russia’s nuclear-powered Burevestnik cruise missile as "not appropriate." Putin claimed the missile is unique and part of efforts to ensure national security. The missile reportedly flew about 8,700 miles over 15 hours during its test on Tuesday. Despite Putin's claims, experts doubt the missile's invincibility, suggesting it could be intercepted by NATO aircraft. Trump noted that the US tests missiles frequently and has a nuclear submarine near Russian shores. Moscow recently lowered the threshold for using nuclear weapons, signaling readiness for aggressive responses.
