U.S. Intelligence confirmed this vessel was loaded up with mostly Fentanyl, and other illegal narcotics. There were four known narcoterrorists on board the vessel. Two of the terrorists were killed. At least 25,000 Americans would die if I allowed this submarine to come ashore. The two surviving terrorists are being returned to their Countries of origin, Ecuador and Colombia, for detention and prosecution. No U.S. Forces were harmed in this strike.

Under my watch, the United States of America will not tolerate narcoterrorists trafficking illegal drugs, by land or by sea.

Thank you for your attention to this matter!" - President Donald Trump.

Russia's Putin in the recent phone call with President Trump offered to exchange Russian-controlled Kherson and Zaporozhye for Ukrainian-controlled Donetsk and Lugansk.

The Washington Post writes that this is "slightly less of a sweeping territorial claim than he made in August at a summit between Trump and Putin in Anchorage, Alaska."

The deal would essentially see all of Donetsk and Lugansk under Russian control. And all of Zaporozhye and Kherson under Ukrainian control.
