          Almost half of the Black Sea is the territory of NATO countries.

          And of this half, at least half belongs to two Orthodox countries.
          No, to swim near Cape Horn for "... achieving mutual understanding, interoperability and trust ...", but no, everything in the Black Sea is drawn to the Russian shores.
          Are the Russian shores smeared with honey? tongue

      NATO members are looking for loopholes of our submarines at sea, conducting electronic reconnaissance.

        Got it! Thank you! And then, after reading this article, I was glad that specific new means of detection and tracking may have appeared immediately at the entrance through the strait.
        Thank you for the dialogue.

    Well, it remains only to wish the "mine action group" to meet with the mine of the Second World War. There are still a lot of them in the Black Sea. There may be fewer people wishing to enter the Black Sea.

    The plan, voiced by the NATO commander in Brussels, "We need to do something with Russia .." begins.
    What else to do with us? We can only be destroyed if the spirit is enough .. And the spirit of NATO is not enough. Crimea is already a fortress with surprises in the catacombs and fortifications created during the Soviet era and now restored and fortified ..

    Will the minesweepers be blown up by an ancient mine? Well it has to be so dumb for that to happen

    But there is no guarantee that others will not face it. And minesweepers are unlikely to collide. Rather "civil"

    Well then, Alexey, the same Americans can ask the question, what should our Russian ships do in the Caribbean, for example. After all, Russia is not a Caribbean country. There is an international treaty, and according to it, they have the right to be in the Black Sea. It's another matter if you wanted to be in the Sea of ​​Azov. Then it would make sense. And if you follow your logic, then our ships have nothing to do in the Mediterranean Sea, or in the Red, or in the Persian Gulf, Indian Ocean and in many other places ...

    Apparently the fleet has nothing else to do, there are no trackers left on the shore.

    No, namesake, these are questions of the same order. If we ask the question, what are American, British, Spanish ships doing in the Black Sea (although this is according to the agreement), then they can ask the same question: what are Russian ships doing in the Mediterranean, Red or any other sea that does not wash territory of Russia ...
