Chief of Staff of the US Navy: because of the threat from the Russian Federation, the NATO fleet must reconsider
"Russia has demonstrated an increase in skill in managing its ships, as well as a desire to resort to methods of military coercion," the newspaper quotes Richardson. Look. - Their combat activity has grown to a level that we have not seen for more than ten years. The level of their training is growing. "
According to the admiral, NATO and the EU should strengthen coordination and more effectively use the forces of their fleets.
“You need to make sure that certain ships are used for the missions most suitable for them, and also that a ship is occupied by several tasks at the same time,” said Richardson. “For example, a ship tracking illegal migrants can also report on the Russian presence in the Mediterranean.”
“Without well-coordinated actions by the EU and NATO, neither the migration issue nor the containment issue of Russia will be solved effectively,” the admiral added.
