Sudan revised the agreement on the establishment of a naval base of the Russian fleet in the country

Sudan completed the revision of the agreement with Russia on the establishment of a Russian naval base in the country fleet. According to the Associated Press, the situation is in favor of Moscow.

The Sudanese military approved the creation of a base for the Russian Navy in the country, a decision on this was made following a visit to Sudan by Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov. Now the agreement needs to be ratified, this will be done by the new government of Sudan, which will be elected in the near future. Today, power in the country is in the hands of the military, who in December signed a framework agreement with a number of political parties to form a government.

They (Russia) dispelled all our fears. The military agreed to the deal

- said one of the Sudanese officials.

At the beginning of 2021, information appeared that the Russian Navy would receive a new logistics center in Sudan, which would allow Russia to control the Red Sea and the Suez Canal. Moscow and Khartoum have entered into a preliminary agreement providing for the construction of a Russian base in Port Sudan. The agreement allowed no more than four ships of the Russian Navy, including warships with a nuclear power plant, to be at the logistics point at the same time. Russia will have to notify Sudan 12 hours before the arrival of its ships and three hours before they leave. According to the project, the number of the Russian contingent in the new MTO point will not exceed 300 people.

The appearance of Russia in this region did not like the United States, which began to put pressure on Khartoum. As a result, the agreement was postponed indefinitely. By the way, Eritrea, neighboring Sudan, has already offered Russia to set up a naval base on its territory.

Eritrea, neighboring Sudan, has already offered Russia to set up a naval base on its territory.

This is what real diplomacy is.

[marchcat]

Most likely, African countries have begun to truly understand who is their friend and who is so ....

[Shurik70]

There are 300 people at the base, which, as I understand it, are purely military.
Service personnel will be recruited from the locals.
For the defense of the object is quite enough.
And four ships, if with missiles, is a serious force.
It seems that Russian diplomacy in Africa has seriously increased.
And the world pays less and less attention to American threats in the world.

[Glagol1]

4 ships = 2 attack and 2 auxiliary. This is a lump sum, not counting transits. Quite self...
And what will it cost papa Dorsot (i.e. us)?

This decision, according to the Russian leadership, will free up funds for the rearmament and reform of the Russian armed forces.

Kvashnin promised instead of Cam Ranh: year of lease = multi-purpose nuclear submarine
And $200 million to rent Lourdos a year, kvashnin:

With this money, we could purchase and launch 20 space satellites, as well as buy up to 100 high-performance modern radars

AS A RESULT: there are no nuclear submarines, no satellites, no radars, no bases in Cuba and Vietnam.

.... "this is your president"?
That is, you are not a citizen of Russia?
Well then, my dear, we will figure it out without you. Including who and where to drag. And your drunk too.
With all the claims against Putin, he is the president of Russia.
Yes, he was probably wrong when he decided this, but you are probably a very young man and you don’t know what Russia was like in 2001 and what country Putin received from your drunk.
For months, pensions and salaries were not paid to people, instead of gold reserves - debts, the war in the Caucasus. By the way, at that time, my wife and I were in charge of two small children and two sick disabled women. My mother and wife's mother. That's for sure then, most Russians were not up to the bases abroad.
All Putin's fault is that he believed the team that he inherited from Yeltsin and the main task at that time was to keep the country from collapse.
And Putin has been president for only a few months and has no experience, and the advisers came from Yeltsin.
So personally I am not a fan of Putin, but there is such a word - objectivity. That's what I'm trying to stick to, no matter who I'm talking about.
Whether it works or not is another question.

I fully support. People don't want to talk at all. Or "sent" Cossacks, which the owner prescribed in the training manual, then they write.

"His ardent follower" is his henchman, but not a follower, for he carried out a different activity. That's the point, that he already pursued a purely his own policy, which, not without errors, but still

He personally was not there, but the whole team in power was Yeltsin's. They sat in all positions, even the highest ones.
And Putin could not ignore this. And the influence of the oligarchs was the strongest. It is foolish to deny this fact.
I repeat, I have an ambivalent attitude towards Putin, but objectively it is so.

Your attitude towards Putin is your own business. But objectively, it was Putin who covered the bases in Cam Ranh and Lourdes.

Of course you are right, Putin closed the bases.

In the spring of 1973, the Egyptian Stella beer suddenly appeared in the Moscow region. Very good. I read about him in "The Ice Book" by Johan Smul. And in the fall, the Arab-Jewish "Doomsday War" began. That is, they paid us with beer too.

Some film was modern, but about the Soviet era. I just got home from work. On TV they drink beer from cans. And my mother says --- real lies! Then bottled beer 0,5 l.
was in short supply! And I didn't know about it...

[Aviator_]

Dmitry, Smuul writes about "Stella" when he returns from Antarctica. And your childhood fell on the black hole of Gorbachev's "perestroika". Mom is also wrong, beer was in short supply only at the end of the 80s, and even then not everywhere. We had beer from the Moscow plant named after. Badaeva - Zhiguli, Velvet, Double gold. This is the Moscow region and the 70s of the last century. In addition, sometimes the Czech "Svetovar" and "Budvar" appeared, but much more expensive. About drinking beer from aluminum cans in the days of the USSR - of course, a lie. If they drank, then from glass three-liter bottles, which were filled either from vending machines in pubs (there was one not far from the MVTU hostel) or from barrels, as in the films "Seven Old Men and One Girl" or "Prisoner of the Caucasus".

Have a nice day, Vladimir Vladimirovich! After all, back in the XVIII --- XIX centuries, RI established contacts precisely in the north of Africa --- Morocco, Egypt, Tunisia.

No rain for the third year.

The agreement allowed no more than four ships of the Russian Navy to be at the logistics point at the same time, including warships with a nuclear power plant.

And this means that submarines can enter ... for minor repairs, crew changes and rest. There will be no need to drive iron to the base to replace the crew, which will significantly save resources and increase KOH.

Quote: Ulan.1812

And Putin has been president for only a few months and has no experience, and the advisers came from Yeltsin.

It's stupid to blame everything on the advisers. The track record of Vladimir Vladimirovich shows that by the year 2000 he had enough competence to make such decisions without any advisers at all.
Since the beginning of 1997 - Deputy Chief Executive Officer of the President of Russia.
March 1997 appointed Deputy Head of the Administration of the President of the Russian Federation - Head of the Main Control Department of the Administration of the President of the Russian Federation, and in May 1998. - First Deputy Head of the Administration of the President of the Russian Federation.
25 July 1998. Appointed by Decree of the President of Russia director of the FSB of Russia.
29 March 1999g. Appointed by Decree of the President of Russia Secretary of the Russian Security Council.
From August 1999 - Prime Minister of the Russian Federation.
Since December 1999 - Acting President of the Russian Federation.

Another thing is that in 2000 we (and our President) sincerely wanted to establish good relations with the Western world in general and with the United States in particular. And as a gesture of goodwill, they closed the bases in Lourdes and Cam Ranh. Everyone already knows what all our attempts and gestures of goodwill led to. And after 7 years in Munich, our President poured out all the bitterness from the fact that our goodwill gestures in the West were taken for weakness in his Munich speech.
