The conditions for signing an agreement on the deployment of the MTO point of the Russian Navy in Port Sudan have become known

79

Sudan wanted to amend the agreement on the construction of a naval base of the Russian Navy in Port Sudan in the Red Sea. The changes will affect several points of the agreement.

As the RIA News With reference to a source in the military department, the Sudanese authorities intend to receive economic assistance from Russia, while the agreement on the lease of the territory for the Russian logistics center is being signed for a period of five years with the possibility of extension for another 25 years. According to the source, Moscow has not yet given a response to Khartoum's proposal.



The fact that the new authorities in Sudan intend to amend the agreement became known in early June this year. It was almost about the refusal to represent the territory. As the then Chief of Staff of the Sudanese Armed Forces, Muhammad Usman al-Hussein, said, the agreement with Moscow was signed by the former government of the Sudan, and the current one intends to revise it.

In April of this year, Khartoum began to "wag", and American officials became frequent visitors to Sudan, who had previously declared the country a haven for terrorists. But as soon as it became known that Russia could get a base in the Red Sea, Washington immediately removed all restrictions from Sudan and offered financial assistance.

According to experts, Khartoum is trying to knock out the highest possible price from Moscow, while keeping Washington in mind. Whether Russia will agree to such conditions, time will tell, but the point in the Red Sea to our the fleet would not hurt.

      The base in Sudan should be set up only after it has been subjected to humanitarian American bombing. And not for five years, but for a hundred. And not in exchange for economic aid, but in exchange for corporatisation of Sudanese assets in favor of Russian investors. Enough on the rake already.

        -the agreement on the lease of the territory for the Russian point of material and technical maintenance is signed for a period of five years with the possibility of extension for another 25 years.
        FROM WHAT moment If from the beginning of construction, the absurdity is complete.
        If the agreement is not renewed, then Sudan and its patrons will receive a READY structure, also with a "surcharge!"
        KIDALOVO is visible with the naked eye.
        ONLY 99 years like the Yankes & Co.
        And stop forgiving debts to just anyone. The CMEA "companions" received (it is not clear for what) EVERYTHING they COUNTED. And they did not write off a penny to a real ally, Cuba.
        By the way, the Yankees never left Guantanamo, although the lease term (99 years) expired long ago, while Cuba did not take the Yankees payment for the rent.

                This is not about retaliation. Russia is the defending side. But this does not mean that the defender should sit and wait for the attack. On the contrary, it is necessary to demonstrate the presence of political will (and the actual ability) to inflict unacceptable damage to the enemy in the event that he starts an open conflict.

As if having ships and a base could increase the intensity of operations there .. for some reason. Keep a small constant grouping.

          If in the Restructuring Agreement it was written that the debts are written off against the lease, and the lease is not provided, then the debt is automatically restored, but this is how the cunning Sudanese do not refuse to provide the lease, it only indicates a lease term of five years, with the possibility (not obligation) to prolong it for another 25 years ...
          So, for a lease of 5 years, the Russian Federation will not invest much in the place of lease ...

      Sudanese authorities intend to receive economic assistance from Russia
      and it
      under the Russian point of material and technical service
      and finally this
      signed for a period of five years

      Taken together, this makes an already not a good idea just a strange stupidity.
      Firstly, the current authorities may also turn out to be temporary, and the next authorities will ask us to leave in 5 years - 5 years is not a period for the object at all.
      Secondly, "economic aid" would not hurt us ourselves right now - let me remind you that the key rate was raised to 6.75%, which kakbe hints at growing inflationary tendencies, which there is nothing to cover in the foreseeable future.
      Thirdly, and finally, the "MTO point" is not a base - in general, this is such a little solution to garbage, to which we will not be able to attach any sensible infrastructure, or an airfield, or sensible defense. It is such a thing to shower uncooperative partners with a golden rain for the sake of the MTO item.

      The regional media quoted the words of Admiral Kravchenko.
      The location of the Russian naval base in this region allows control of the Red Sea and the coast of the Arabian Peninsula. The shortest route between the Indian Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea of ​​the Atlantic Ocean runs along the waters of the Red Sea. This allows water transport to pass both ways between Europe and Asia without skirting Africa. There pass the most important transport arteries from Europe through the Suez Canal, the Red Sea to the Indian Ocean, in the direction of Asia and Australia. Anyone with naval bases in the Red Sea can easily take control of the Bab al-Mandeb Strait, through which supplies of hydrocarbons from the monarchies of the Persian Gulf go to the United States and the EU.
      He loudly voiced the fact that neighboring countries are afraid like fire and see this only in terrible dreams.
      To say that not everyone at BV is happy about this is to say nothing. The Americans are Americans, but Khartoum appears to be under pressure from its neighbors. They say that today it is an MTO point, and tomorrow it will be a full-fledged base. Like, was Egypt not enough for us in the 60s and 70s, when he launched the USSR to himself? Djibouti and Eritrea are very worried about the Bab el-Mandeb Strait. In a word, everything is not so simple there.

          In Djibouti there are not two, but 5 (five!) Foreign military bases.
          It is a lucrative business for a small and poor country. The US pays $ 63 million a year to rent its base, the French $ 36 million, China $ 20 million, and Italy $ 2,6 million. The amount Japan pays has not been published.

          For a country with a population of 750 thousand, these are more than noticeable numbers.

              For a country that does not have an industry at all, with an almost complete absence of minerals, China is a lifesaver - the main supplier of everything and everyone (60%), and it also pays two tens of millions for its base. What more could you want?
              By the way, Djibouti is a source of Belarusian pineapples, kiwi and other shrimp with octopuses.

      the Sudanese authorities intend to receive economic assistance from Russia, while the agreement on the lease of the territory for the Russian point of material and technical support is signed for a period of five years with the possibility of extension


      5 years is about nothing. If they want economic assistance from Russia, then the lease period should be 25 years with the possibility of extension, otherwise they want to receive money from Russia and then refuse to extend the base after 5 years.

      Sudan is important. The Yankees will go through the forest. Do not feed them with bread, just create a hotbed of instability, especially in such an important place

      The Sudanese authorities have announced their readiness to host a Russian naval base for 25 years. Super headline. I read the news about 5 years and ours did not agree, but in the news there is an agreement for 25 years. The journalists are STUPID, they offered ours 5 years and there was no agreement yet. Just like in tank biathlon, the tank made a hole in the target. What is a hole xs. I hit right in the center of a good hole)))

      How can we not remember our Kipling's Rudyard:
      "For your health, fuzzy
      For Sudan - your country!
      First class, unchrist naked
      You were a warrior in battle. "
      Hmm, times are changing ...

      "Wouldn't hurt" is not an argument.
      The base must be watered, fed and guarded. This is money. The base should have a rotation of units carrying combat alert. If this is again a shuttle business from the remaining half-dead amphibious ships, and you also need to kiss black-asses, then in general .. (Here is a checkmate)

      And it makes sense for Russia to climb into Sudan with its cooperation. I would postpone this until Ethiopia fills up its reservoir and launches a new hydropower plant. Sudan can start a war with Christian Ethiopia for Russian aid for permission to lease the base and for American aid for canceling a Russian lease. If Sudanese diplomats show ingenuity, they will be able to let Russia and the United States go around.

      And no one expected anything else .. This whole idea initially smelled like a gamble and a divorce for money .. Just another "brotherly" Papuans who agree to be friends with someone who has more beautiful glass beads .. Otherwise, nothing will work .. This earlier, the Marxist-Leninist ideology and belief in a just socialist world community allowed for some time to fool various Papuans and use their lands and resources .. Well, forgive them multimillion-dollar debts .. And now, in the absence of a clear ideology, all international relations are based on exclusively financial basis .. In the morning - money, in the evening - chairs, and the next morning - kick in the ass and we do not know you ..))) So it will work out with this pier in Sudan .. At any moment, the Americans will lay out a bundle of thicker banknotes - and Sudanese Papuans will weigh a magic pendel to our gallant sailors ..

      The President has repeatedly stated that our country is taking a defensive position to protect the state. The base in the Red Sea is not a defense, but an attack. Again, will we feed the unfaithful "friends" who will inevitably deceive?

      Sudan is courting not Russia, but the United States.
      Russia is just an excuse to put pressure on the printing press.

      Yes, there is not so necessary to act. To send all the kings of the coastal states the terms of the tender-auction: Humanitarian aid for 12 million rubles a year (and a ticket for an excursion to the Kremlin), in exchange for xxxx square meters of the coast. Every week the amount is reduced by 1 million. The first one who agrees wins the tender.
      I think, not a week will pass, as there will be 5 places for bases along the entire coast laughing

      Washington buys everyone!
      As a result, we will be left without an MTO base, but it is possible to "help" Sudan by joining the United States with more Baku ones.

      Whatever agreement you sign with these Sudanese, they cost no more than the paper on which they were written. Kagritsa. "we know, they swam" therefore, they shouldn't give them any money. If they don't want to, don't.
