US expands military presence in the Black Sea region

The United States intends to expand its military presence in the Black Sea region. To this end, the US military will modernize the air base in the city of Campia-Turzii in Romania.

The large-scale modernization of the airbase will cost the Americans $ 152 million, work will begin this summer. Payment for the work will be carried out within the framework of the European Deterrence Initiative, launched by the United States in 2014 with the aim of containing "aggressive Russia."

Exactly what changes are planned to be carried out at the airbase is not reported, but based on the fact that the US Air Force intends to further deploy heavy military transport aircraft, as well as the latest fighters, the work will concern the runways and the construction of additional hangars for equipment.

The US Air Force says that after the modernization of the Campia-Turziy air base, it will provide an opportunity for American fighters to "quickly respond" to any threats arising in the Black Sea region, understanding Russia as a threat, of course. In addition, in the future, the Americans intend to use the Romanian airbase as a rotational hub for NATO troops.

In Romania itself, the US initiative was taken calmly, Bucharest and Washington are actively cooperating in the military sphere, they even adopted a joint "road map" in the sphere of defense, designed for 10 years. It pays special attention to the "security of the Black Sea region" against the background of Moscow's revitalization.

The Americans are creating their own infrastructure here and there.

We can say that the State Department is working perfectly well.

The same cannot be said about our Foreign Ministry officials.

Our people manage to ask here and there.

Why insult the employees of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs without knowing their powers, or do you think that carrying doggy nonsense, like the Ambassador of Ukraine to Germany (Melnik), you can achieve something?

Our diplomats act on the basis of the country's capabilities and not vice versa, and this is what we need to build on.

[Real Pilot]

And let them build.
All the same, this base is not far away, Russian missiles will cover it quickly, if necessary. After the deployment of the US missile defense base, Romania is already in sight. Here, as they say, a barn burned down - burn down and a hut ... One more point on the map, that's all.

On the other hand, we remember all those wonderful airfields and bases in Eastern Europe, which were taken over by NATO and the Americans in the 90s. Soviet troops were stationed there, and now the American ones are in charge.
Wouldn't the same thing happen again? That is, when the "hegemon" is deflated, the hourglass can turn over again. And already our troops will enter the facilities built by the Americans. Anything has happened, there is nothing incredible in geopolitics!

... In addition to Syria, it does not want to provide Russia with a part of the territory for the construction of a military base, for example, in Cuba, or in Venezuela, or in Vietnam ... Just in memory of the past merits of the foreign policy of the USSR (the successor of which was the Russian Federation). It would be great - to tickle the nerves of American warriors in a completely innocent way of flying along the coast of strategists of the Tu-95 (160) type in various modifications ...
Or please the American AUGs with an unexpected surfacing in the Caribbean ...
This is called an adequate response to threats. And by shaking the air, it is useless to achieve complaisance and sympathy from the satellites who have gone crazy, knowing that in a biconvex scenario, their existence will be limited to a minute of time. Moreover, to convince the "strategists" who are "entrenched" overseas, who sleep and see it blazing on fire (either kneeling for mercy, or split into small autonomies, or getting involved in some kind of war with neighbors, etc., etc.) .p.) Russia.
What did they say about a kind word and a loaded Colt?

[knn54]

NATO regards the Yankes as the "one and only" organization responsible for the security of ALL of Eurasia.
And so the latter more and more often assume exorbitant obligations.
Relations will NEVER mend if the geopolitical interests of the Russian Federation are considered a threat to the interests of the United States.

The patrol ship of the coastal zone of the Royal Navy of Great Britain OPV Trent on Tuesday, May 18, moored at one of the berths of the Odessa sea station, writes ArmyInform.

During his visit, joint training with Ukrainian naval sailors is planned on board the ship.

There will also be a joint training at sea like PASSEX.

OPV Trent is a new ship that entered the Royal Navy in August 2020.

Nazar, what do you have against the Russian Crimea ??? Or naively think that in a different scenario the Yankees would not have deployed their military bases where they are now? Naively, Gorbachev and Yeltsin also took their word for it, and NATO went east. You are constantly distressed from the Russian Crimea, admit it already, ease your soul.

[The leader of the Redskins]

I remember very well when, during the rule of pockmarked Yushchenko in Ukraine, there were even advertisements that it was good to be in NATO.
But! ... Ordinary people said no! And all that hype died out.
But now you don't even need to go to the TV, but many of the same ordinary people (and politicians, every second) nod their manes that they need to join NATO ...
And all sorts of bases appear. Now in Odessa, then in Berdyansk, then in Georgia, then in Romania ...

Well, let’s NATO also start in Sevastopol-Crimea! And then what ? And then our North Caucasus will fall down. The Yankees will find someone to shove a magic bag of dollars to set fire to the jihad ... Russia will be completely squeezed out of the Black Sea. RUSSIAN by the way !!! And so, in principle, a civil war and the disintegration of the Russian Federation will begin ... Sevastopol and the Crimea is that carnation, without which the structure is destroyed ...

Yeah ... In the area of ​​the Bosphorus, so that their "Turkish friends" do not bother taking into account the incoming and outgoing ships. As a last resort, the proposal of A.A. Gromyko has not lost its relevance:

 Show / Hide text

Remarkably, the geographical location and economic ties provide all the prerequisites for a strong and reliable friendship. After all, being in conjunction with each other, Russia and Turkey mutually grow rich. But as it happened many times, there were always advisers, both their own and those of others, who turned Turkey against Russia. For the first, it always turned into a big incident.
A similar incident occurred during the Soviet era. In 1952, Turkey joined NATO, after which the Americans deployed nuclear warheads on its territory. The United States paid off with preferential loans, simultaneously arming an ally. It was then that the Turkish leaders were again dizzy from imaginary power, and some already recalled the good times of the Ottoman Empire. And none of them thought that it was the twentieth century.
And since we are so great again, the Turkish authorities thought, we will close the Bosphorus for Soviet ships. Although, in accordance with the Montreux Convention, Turkey does not have the right to close the straits. But the word is not a sparrow - the statement has been made. It is no secret that this trick was forged thousands of miles from Istanbul in the United States, which constantly pushed Turkey into an armed conflict with the USSR.
You can joke and play only with your peers, with the Soviet Union then such tricks did not take place.
Moscow did not make a worried face, summon the Turkish ambassador and poke a diplomatic note in his nose. Or, finally, collect a round table. No, we did it differently. Soviet Foreign Minister Comrade Gromyko, in a conversation with American journalists, said that the Soviet fleet does not need the Bosphorus to enter the Mediterranean Sea. On which the questions naturally rained down - how is this possible, did you teach geography?
Gromyko calmly replied: just two volleys and besides the Bosphorus there will be more straits, though I'm not sure if Istanbul will remain!

Thank you very informative. Spilling them. Comrade Stalin. or them. Comrade Kalinin.

Welcome
There is a serious game going on, a confrontation! Everything is important in it, everyone strives to do in his own way, what he can.
We may not have the best position, but it is OUR position and we can defend it! We can throw a hedgehog under the tail of the enemy, so we continue to "play" !!!

[cniza]

Good time!

Well, yes, they are gathering a crowd again, but we are on our own land and she will help us ...

[rocket757]

Native land will help us!
And we are starting to help those who are not allowed by strangers, enemies, to live on their land in peace !!!
So let's go!

We have a just cause, and we have no other choice, they will not just lag behind us ...

[rocket757]

It’s just right, but we need to build up our strength, in all directions !!!
As they say, hope in God, but do not make a mistake yourself!

They will not allow us to live in peace until they once again rake and subside for 50 years ...

[rocket757]

Summer on a power that has vigorous arguments, directly, they will not dare!
They will be differently, from below, from the gateway, or even on the very top to beat ... they know how, they know how to do it. Not striped, so their cousins ​​will try. In vain that they have such a thing .... they have collected guano, from the former, and even the present, some.

[cniza]

Yes, they have many methods and we have already said, they work very closely with our youth ...

[rocket757]

To say that this is a big misfortune is not yet possible ... we have sane young people, many more than empty-headed ones !!! But, work on "cleaning" must be carried out, because even small garbage does not contribute to the precise work of such a complex mechanism as the state!

[cniza]

This is just one of them, and so we need to squeeze them away from us and force them to abide by our laws ...

Well, yes, all the guardians to the exit, and the internal "molesters", at least, in the stall, if not behind the fence.

IMHO It is necessary to expand the presence of the Russian Federation in the Caribbean region. Cuba still owes the Russian Federation quite a lot of money, they will not pay it anyway .. So to place, on account of the debt, something convincing in Cuba "to contain the aggressive USA."

[rocket757]

Like, from there we will threaten .... striped?
Are there many questions to which there are answers?

[CYM]

It is perhaps not worthwhile to threaten "Kuzma's mother" directly, but to strengthen the position for negotiations, why not.

[rocket757]

A complex approach ....
Cuba, although it is far away, was always there, we need to do the right things in that direction.

[Kronos]

At one time, it was under Putin that they refused from the base in Cuba, but what's serious about stirring up this new Caribbean crisis only without a bloc of allies.

[rocket757]

The issue needs to be addressed in a comprehensive manner ... which means that it is necessary to start from the political and economic aspects!
In general, it is not possible to be simple, although if you try very hard, everything can be solved correctly.

[CYM]

IMHO And the sense was from those "allies" (except for the GDR), it is still unknown who they would shoot if something happened. There, the same Romanians with Bulgarians went to the United States, the "corpse" of the VD did not have time to cool down. And as a result of the resolution of the Cuban missile crisis, the United States was able to calm down for a while. Russia has lousy cards in its hands (just like the USSR in 1961-62), so either fold or bluff up the stakes.

[APASUS]

In Romania itself, the US initiative was taken calmly, Bucharest and Washington are actively cooperating in the military sphere, they even adopted a joint "road map" in the sphere of defense, designed for 10 years. It pays special attention to the "security of the Black Sea region" against the background of Moscow's revitalization.

The construction of railway and road bridges for the transfer of troops is expensive. The Romanians themselves cannot offer anything else, as soon as they sit on the neck of the next hegemon ..................

[cniza]

Well, at the expense of who sat on whom, you know the habits of striped ...

[rocket757]

The striped ones know how not to skimp when it is necessary ... all the more, they know very well about a donkey with a sack of gold, and they also have their own "gold", specific! They can, can, afford it.

[cniza]

While they can, they are still very strong and dangerous ...

[rocket757]

They can, they can, the offices write, "scripts", and the machine prints, prints!

[cniza]

And a lot of weapons are produced ...

[rocket757]

So this is generally a business with ... although personal interest was not mixed there by measure!

Still, weapons must be sold, which means they must be used ...

This simplicity is worse than stealing. There is one option - to "soak" the first stoker to death, who will use the firewood.
Russia is showing the world its complete dependence on (???) the interests of the oligarchs. This is because of their fears of losing their "honestly plundered", we are marking time without taking decisive action, fearing to incur the wrath of the overseas hegemon. The time of shame has passed, the time of war and shame is coming. Does anyone have doubts that this pack of rabid dogs will go away on a good-bye? Or does anyone have doubts that it was we who, with our passivity, provoked Hitler? The scenario can be played out with new characters.

To this end, the US military will modernize the air base in the city of Campia-Turzii in Romania.

And no aircraft carriers of 500 billion rubles are needed.

Quote: BAI

And if you give a warning. that if any aircraft from this airbase approaches the airspace of the Russian Federation, it will be erased from the face of Romania? This is the military doctrine of the Russian Federation and the protection of sovereignty. There is no way to crush with tanks - you need to clean it up in a different way, regardless of screeching and screaming.

US expands military presence in the Black Sea region

Well, what can I tell you, someday we will come to visit you in Cuba or have already come ..
I read somewhere recently that the current Russian Black Sea Fleet in terms of its power and capabilities has practically been compared with the USSR World Cup.

[Evil 55]

since 2014 they have been "holding back" .. it’s how they strain .. So it’s not far from "incontinence" with chronic enuresis.

[Gnefredov]

Surprisingly, two years ago I read about these plans for Romania in the "Naval Aviation News" (not quite sure what exactly in this magazine, but still) there was a tiny note. What surprises me is that the Yankees have a certain strategy. But any strategy is a continuation of the plan. And what kind of plan is this when the "jump" airfields are getting closer to our border? I will allow myself a little emotion - it annoys me.

[CYM]

This strategy dates back to the times of the American Civil War, called "Anaconda Loop". And its modern successful implementation is described here https://ria.ru/20210331/raspad-1603604939.html

[Gnefredov]

I read it. Thank.
The Anglo-Saxons understand the world only as Anglo-Saxon. They do not want to live in friendship with a different vision of the world. So I understand. It's sad, because we are going to war. On the other hand, the Commander-in-Chief mentioned the blow to the decision-making centers. Well, if so then I will smile in the next world.
--
In general, the situation is tragicomic.

[Adimius38]

and everything goes to the fact that they will be imposed on all sides and our ships will be literally blocked in the bases because at the exit there will be NATO frigates and aviation on guard, and from the ground everything will be at gunpoint of missile strike systems from Georgia and Ukraine under crossfire.

[Gnefredov]

Clear. Therefore, the Crimea at the foe "across the throat."

[businessv]

Quote: Adimius38

Aha, and ours will wait until they are blocked, and then express concern! This is a joke! Who will let them do this ?!

[senima56]

We also need to "expand our presence" in the Mexican region. Namely, to revive the naval base in Cuba and by doing so "put a hedgehog in the Americans' pants!", As one well-known Soviet leader said!

[Adimius38]

no one will expand anything because where are the assets of our elite? obviously not at dachas in the suburbs, and they left Cuba at the suggestion of good uncle Vova, who at one time was so carried away by friendship with friends and partners in the west that he announced that we did not need bases abroad. On October 17, 2001, President Vladimir Putin announced at a meeting at the Ministry of Defense that the military bases in Lourdes and Cam Ranh were being dismantled. Now we were simply sent from Vietnam with our proposals, and Cuba is no longer waiting with hugs.

[businessv]

In Romania itself, the US initiative was taken calmly

Romanians in their repertoire - they took Hitler calmly, and attacked the Union calmly too. They will finally calm down only when they get snot again.
