Unrealized plans: By 2021, the United States was going to turn Sevastopol into a rotational-basing zone for ships of the 6th Fleet

One of the areas of US financial assistance to Ukraine is the allocation of funds for the creation of virtually its own military base in Ochakov, Mykolaiv region. Over the past few years, the Ukrainian Navy has been creating an infrastructure in this city that can accommodate not only Ukrainian units directly, but also American "partners". It is noteworthy that the American military is also taking an active part in the creation of this infrastructure. In particular, we are talking about the work carried out by the personnel of the 1st Construction Battalion of the United States Marine Corps.

An important aspect here is that prior to the reunification of Crimea with Russia, US-Ukrainian contacts also concerned the use of engineering units of the same US Marine Corps in the creation of naval infrastructure in Sevastopol. Ukraine was pushed to squeeze out the Russian Black Sea fleet from a hero city in order to create a full-fledged NATO military base with an American presence.

Based on these plans, the updated facility with a NATO military presence in Sevastopol was supposed to be landscaped by 2018, and by 2021 it would have finally turned into a rotational basing zone for ships of the US 6th Fleet. In other words, already now the American flag would fly over Sevastopol, and the US Navy ships would stand in its bay.

The plans and schemes of the facility have already been prepared and approved by the American military command. But the Crimean Spring did not just confuse the military cards for the Pentagon, it also canceled out the costs that went into this kind of naval planning. The plans were unfulfilled.

They had to "seek" new financial resources to study the possibilities of locating a base with a NATO military presence elsewhere. As a result, it was decided that they would build in Ochakov - closer to the Dnieper estuary. The military facility in this city is planned to be used, among other things, as an object of “monitoring the military situation in Crimea”. In fact, for the constant monitoring of the Black Sea Fleet of the Russian Navy - observation of Sevastopol, which turned out to be "partners", as they say, too tough.

It is not for nothing that the post-Maidan authorities of the Square, one of the the very first decisions were pushed: breaking the agreement on the presence of the Black Sea Fleet in the Crimea and Sevastopol! At the same time, they openly declared that Sevastopol would be a NATO base!
Not broken off! Crimea "sailed away" from Nenko "together with Sevastopol!

[nickname7]

At the same time, they openly stated that Sevastopol would be a NATO base.

They still have the audacity to assert that the Russian Federation was obliged under international treaties to ensure the construction of NATO bases in Crimea. Although the agreements were concluded on the basis of neutrality and non-entry of Ukraine into NATO.

We have been dragging on for a long time with the solution of the Ukrainian problem.

You are right as the ones were right someone suggested, on the basis of the THEN assistance to the real president of Ukraine (2014) and the protection of its people (historical Novorossians and Little Russians), to resolve the issue of the southeastern O, Krajina (historical lands of the Republic of Ingushetia, USSR) before ... and with the inclusion of Prednistrovie .. The remaining 1/3 without 2/3 of the economy and industrial production would be NOTHING and would have been pilfered by the former "brothers" in the CMEA and the Warsaw Pact (Poland, etc.), and there the issue of "ukrov" would have been resolved. As historically it was solved more than once, an example is described in the famous work "Taras Bulba". And how Galicians and their organizations "love" in Poland ... a separate song.
Now, it will be harsher, not only napaskanny "new janissaries" dug in there, but also the USA, and this is "more fun" ... Especially with the "unexpected" (unpredictable) "sleepy Joe", or rather those who really rule the United States.
And with the Crimea, they "managed" to catch up with the last carriage .... Otherwise, they would "splash" off the coast of Sochi ...
Can. somehow it is more careful to calculate the process, the bird of luck may not have time, and the price will be several times higher ... and not only along the perimeter ...
Good luck, everyone has their own vision of the process

[nickname7]

resolve the issue of southeastern O, kraina (historical lands of the Republic of Ingushetia, USSR)

If we are to rewind time back, then EBNu, when the union was divided, it was necessary to insist with what they entered into an alliance with and leave. It was necessary to return the Russian lands temporarily issued back, as it was at the time of Ukraine's accession to the USSR. Then there would be no problems at all and there would be no need to start a war. EBN made not even a mistake, but a crime.

So the Russian Federation at one time began the construction of a naval base in Novorossiysk. There were talks about the transformation of the Novrossiysk port into a naval base and the transfer of the commercial port to Azov. But then Maidan came.

This was to be expected. Bases around the world, it was the US golden dream to own Crimea (Sevastopol).

The initiator of the local referendum in Donbass on the status of the Russian language and the federalization of Ukraine was the organization International Movement of Donbass, founded in 1989 by brothers Dmitry and Vladimir Kornilov. As Vladimir Kornilov recalled, “representatives of Donetsk political forces and organizations, and, most importantly, the strike committees of the Donetsk region, which at that time had great power, had long demanded the holding of this referendum. The idea of ​​giving the Russian language a state status, along with the Ukrainian language, the idea of ​​the federalization of Ukraine was then on everyone's lips and was raised not only in Donbass, but throughout Ukraine as a whole. Miners went on strike with these slogans ”. In March 1994, the regional councils of Donetsk and Luhansk regions decided to hold a regional referendum

Do you really believe that the United States will write in plain text like this, saying that we are building a base there? And why was it canceled immediately after the events in Crimea?

they make repairs every year before the exercises, where they are located ...

Does the US military need to be accommodated in schools and hospitals? They don't have cabins on their ships? Are they really so gentle that they certainly need to make repairs for half a million dollars of some school, live there for 2 weeks and leave? Do you yourself believe in such wasteful actions of the AMERICANS?

[2 Level Advisor]

How do you imagine NATO units doing repairs in a Russian school? In principle, I do not mind if there are no accommodations, let at least all schools be repaired for us at their own expense ..

[Wedmak]

how do you imagine

In principle, I cannot imagine NATO engineering units in the Russian school. And also doing repairs there, but free of charge ... I really don't know what has to turn over / spin / fall for this to happen.
Although ... Hollywood is mighty ...

Try to find interviews or articles by Turchinov, Yatsenyuk, Yushchenko, even before the age of 14 they argued about the need to join NATO.

[Sergey Nikiforov]

You can question Where after 1945 was at least one full-fledged US base created.? To count the radar in Romania is silly Bagram.? With a big stretch, in 1993 I was with a group of officers at the Romstein base And although we were taken to the hospital, but to the outbuildings, the size and infrastructure were impressive Well, now explain why the base is in Sevastopol, when ANY country of black base This is what income and how many jobs

[Wedmak]

What do you consider to be a full-fledged base?

why base in Sevastopol

Well, at least dip "these Russians" in the mud ... Glorious Sevastopol is now under US control - what is it like, eh? The strongest blow to prestige. And by pushing through an agreement with Ukraine on the deployment of an N number of soldiers and equipment there, you can practically control the Black Sea, inserting the Black Sea Fleet not even sticks - logs, wherever you want. And, if I understand correctly, this would be the closest NATO base to the borders of Russia. Where can you suddenly bring radar and air defense systems ... from where you can calmly launch UAVs, which from now on will hang on our borders for weeks ... where there is no Russian Black Sea Fleet - this will have a strong impact on the control of our borders.
In general, if you are a military man, why am I explaining to you the elementary truths that are visible from the sofa?

[Sergey Nikiforov]

The Baltic states have seen at least one base in NATO since 2004.? And the infrastructure in the same Tartu (where the divisional commander was Dudayev) is completely intact So about the Crimea This is called the Pyrrhic victory Found the Crimea, lost Ukraine Now the B-52s fly there freely And the length of the borders is 1200 km and they need to be constantly strengthened, spending a lot of money Go war against Ukraine.? The referendum will not work there anymore.? The USSR has already been expelled from the League of Nations, In this case, it will be worse Iran as forced to a nuclear deal.? That's right, the embargo on the purchase of oil They definitely apply it to us And then .........

[Wedmak]

Why is there a base in the Baltics? You are either pretending, or you do not want to think a little. All the Baltics and so under NATO, bark on command. But Ukraine is just making its way there and Crimea would be an excellent place of control for both Russia and Ukraine.

Pyrrhic victory Gained Crimea, lost Ukraine

You misused the term "Pyrrhic victory". This actually stands for "victory at the cost of monstrous losses." And Ukraine was not our property. It was an independent (well, as far as it could) country, with its own politics. They worked great with her, built airplanes, for example. But at one point I turned the wrong way. Well ... a tailwind to the fifth point. Do you think that if the Crimea had not crossed over to Russia, the B-52 would not have flown there? Yeah, shchaz ... there is no need to conquer Ukraine. It just doesn't make sense.
Iran and Russia are slightly different weight categories, agree? If only because the Russian Federation already has nuclear weapons and is very diverse. We can talk about any deal if ALL countries that have nuclear weapons join it. But this will not happen in the near future.

That's right, the embargo on the purchase of oil They definitely apply it to us And then .........

What then? In the first winter, Europe is freezing with almost the entire composition on the principle of "spite of Russia" And the United States is violet to Europe, they have their own resources. And they will not be able to fully provide the EU with gas and oil. Do not forget also that Russia can already respond to the United States to such embargoes.

And I must admit that they are doing well, our country, Russia, to put it mildly, is experiencing centrifugal tendencies, economically, many regions are already more connected with foreign countries, many regions culturally no longer associate themselves with Russia, etc. And by the way, our nationalists are playing into their hands.

I believe that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Defense of Russia could, on the issue of the so-called. "rotation" of NATO contingents in zones with contractual restrictions on the deployment of forces and assets of the parties to be assertive. After all, what is the so-called. "rotation" in its MILITARY essence? .. Yes, nothing else but a REAL, DOUBLE build-up of forces and equipment of a potential enemy near the borders of Russia. Regardless of whether we are talking about the so-called. "air police", which controls the airspace over the water area and the territory of the Baltic near the Russian borders and is based on the airfields of the Baltic limitrophes, modernized to receive all types of aircraft. Or about the NATO ground contingents in the territories of the same limitrophes, "rotationally" deployed in the so-called. "Combat battalion groups of NATO's expanded presence". Also about the "rotation" of the US Navy and NATO in the Black Sea. After all, "rotation" is not carried out anywhere on the principle of "one left, the other came." No ... The "trick" is that during the PERIOD of "rotation" there is a DOUBLE detachment of forces and equipment at the places of deployment and deployment of contingents of a potential military enemy. preliminarily already coordinated, technically organizationally compatible and united by a single military planning. The contingents, which have long included potential ("certified") carriers of nuclear weapons (NATO tactical aviation as part of the already mentioned "air police"). And these squads of forces and means, including the so-called. "X-hour" may well be SUDDENLY used for strikes on Russia without any "preliminary deployment". And NATO and the United States are systematically presenting the so-called. "rotation" precisely as a way of observing contractual restrictions, although in essence and form, the opposite is true. I will clarify that we are talking about deployment on the so-called. "permanent basis. After all, Russia signed agreements EXACTLY with NATO, as the ONE military alliance. AND ITS CONTINGENTS (i.e. NATO) near the borders of Russia are CONSTANTLY present in the places of deployment and deployment, even during the period of the so-called. "rotate" when they DOUBLE. So, the so-called. The "rotation" of the NATO troops of the Germans to the NATO troops of the Turks or the NATO troops of the Poles, in this case, does not change anything and is a violation of agreements with Russia ...

[cniza]

In other words, already now the American flag would fly over Sevastopol, and the US Navy ships would stand in its bay.

This is what infuriates them most of all, Russia has taken away from under its noses ...

Based on these plans, the updated facility with a NATO military presence in Sevastopol was supposed to be landscaped by 2018, and by 2021 it would have finally turned into a rotational basing zone for ships of the US 6th Fleet.

"homework", reorganizing my armed forces to the level of almost complete compatibility with NATO requirements. And in terms of structural and organizational, and in terms of technical and armaments, and in terms of military-staff planning and command-and-control procedures ... The same applies to infrastructure, bases and the possibility (creation of real potential) to be a "host". Able, at the required moment, to ensure the reception and deployment of the so-called. "allied" forces. What other additional "plans" do you need in this case? .. And for what? .. If the REALITY of long-term STRATEGIC GOALS IS REALLY CONFIRMED BY A CONSISTENT PRACTICAL POLICY and decisions taken? ..

Those that figure 2018 as the year of improvement, and 2021 as the year of the beginning of the basing of part of the US 6th Fleet on a rotational basis. Actually, a "plan", if referred to, is a document signed and approved by someone. This is not the opinion of some blogger on the Internet.

[ABC-schutze]

Not convinced. For this, I remain unconvinced. First, VO is a public (albeit specialized) information portal for ALL users, incl. and bloggers. And its news section is not a daily situation summary for management. Those. the authors of the news section, in principle, can quite afford such terminological "liberties" as the designation by the term "plan" of OBVIOUS intentions of the parties not yet clothed in the format of a document. In an infe of this level, "plan" and "intent" may well be considered synonyms. Secondly, let's imagine that the author of the article has posted on the portal the "evidence" you require in the format you want (with stamps, signatures and terms). Presumably, your next logical desire would be to find out: "Where did the author get it?" Isn't that so? .. I think that with this kind of curiosity to be more modest ... Thirdly, you did not react in any way to the final paragraph of my reply to your post. In which I quite clearly remind myself that ALL the policy of the "post-Soviet" leadership of the former united Ukraine, since the collapse of the USSR, was conceptually and IN PRACTICE aimed at integration "into NATO." I could also add that at the summit of the alliance in Budapest (2006) Kiev and Tiflis were already practically ready to receive the so-called. The "Action Plan" and they were actively supported by Washington and NATO-vsky remake of the "enlargement" of 2004. But thanks to the efforts of Russia, Kiev and Tiflis, asked to "wait in the hallway" ... In short, the lack of authentic texts of the documents you want in the article does not in any way reduce the overall level of authenticity of the author's message. And to "believe" this or "not to believe" is your own business ...

Okay. Let me explain. The article is titled: "Unfulfilled Plans: By 2021, the United States was going to turn Sevastopol into a rotational basing zone for ships of the 6th Fleet." If you do not show these plans, then the mention of them very much resembles the common clichés about "Moscow is freaking out ...", "Russia plans to dismember the EU ..." and others like that. Therefore, it is interesting for me to read something specific, and not fictions, reprinted from other publications, where the "truth" is also very conditional. Like a story about an airplane, from which half of the ship's crew quit and the rest were treated by psychiatrists. If you have no reason for such desires, then this is purely your business. You have the right. I have the right to want details and proven reliability.

[ABC-schutze]

And what is your "explanation"? .. You simply repeated your wish, only in other words. And they reminded me of their "right" ... Your link to the title of the article is not an argument for me. At school I am taught to begin acquaintance with any material, namely with a careful reading of the title. And I am following this good advice ... But I have already reminded that a news article on a public portal is not a "daily" summary for the command. And in this kind of articles, the intentions of the parties, it is quite permissible to designate the "plans" mentioned in the title. I am more surprised that while pushing on your interest in authenticity, you nevertheless stubbornly ignore the "accompanying background" (that is, the SPECIFIC FACTOR from the prehistory), on which for YEARS in Sevastopol and the Crimea (more broadly, on the Black Sea), the US was developing (NATO). And she, just, in the possibility of doubting the authenticity of the original (already since the collapse of the USSR) intentions of Washington and Brussels for the long-term consolidation of their military presence in Crimea, Sevastopol and the region (with the parallel ousting of Russia from it) does not give ...

Under the guise of how the Americans "needed Ukraine," they really needed Crimea and Sevastopol.
And what is interesting, if it were not for the coup - it is very likely that they would have received it from another Yanukovych, or there, tymoshenko - they are all not averse to bargaining with the security of Russia, it is profitable and very cunning!
But someone clever decided: what to delay ... until the 14th or even more so the 17th year, this business must be accelerated.
We received a suitcase without a handle - Ukraine without Crimea and without any real hope of "returning everything back."
So the grateful residents of Crimea should put up a monument to Obama and Nuland with the inscription "Thank you, dear friends!" They will be pleased. And give them a prize. Lenin's or Stalin's - let them choose themselves.
