Media: NATO military committee worried about the fact that the Black Sea is practically becoming the “Russian lake”

119
NATO fears that Russia will further increase its presence in the Black Sea and deprive the alliance of operational maneuver, according to an article in the Financial Times.



"I told him (NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg):" You are almost absent in the Black Sea. It has practically become a Russian lake. If we do not act now, story won't forgive us, ”leads RIA News the words of Erdogan spoken in Istanbul at a meeting of the chiefs of staff of the Balkan countries.

According to the NATO military committee, “Russia creates military power in the sea that goes beyond its borders, and in this way Moscow is able to deprive the alliance of operational maneuver near NATO borders,” the article says.

“The cornerstone of such a strategy is the positioning of ships in the Black Sea and the deployment of Caliber cruise missiles on ships,” the newspaper writes.

“The Black Sea is very vulnerable. Russia is returning to the game she waged both during the Cold War and before. The essence of the game is to treat the Black Sea as something like a Russian lake, ”Jonathan Eyal, the director of the Rusi think tank, quotes the publication.

Earlier, Petro Poroshenko announced the need to strengthen the alliance's positions in the Black Sea. He approved Romania’s plans to create a “separate Black Sea flotilla within NATO. ”

    Before discussing the Russian Sea or the Black Sea, all this pack should repeat the lessons of history.
    Especially the Turks. I will not remind of any Yorktowns and carons off the coast of Crimea. And so they used to talk on TV.

      History lessons: 1. The Caribbean crisis due to the close deployment of our missiles to the United States.
      2. Millions, tens of millions of dead Soviet citizens in the Second World War.
      We need to react more sharply to the approach of NATO forces to the borders of Russia and the deployment of American missile defense systems and medium-range missiles at our borders.

      "... Later, in the X-XIV centuries, in ancient Russian, Arab and Western sources, it is referred to as the" Russian Sea ", which is associated with its active use by navigators from Russia. The" Tale of Bygone Years "says" And the Dnieper will flow into Pont the sea is three zherela, the sea is called Ruskoe ... "... (from Wikipedia)

        I will continue your thought. Anyone who owns the Black Sea (or significant influence through the fleet and other types of aircraft) is capable of exerting a significant (if not decisive) influence on the situation in Syria, and on the whole BV. The Black Sea is the key to the entire Middle East mess. You can’t transport such an amount of everything necessary for exposure by air. So here the squeal of the West is quite justified. Pros ... and Crimea - pros ... and Syria. And what else will there be ... oh - time will tell.

        So the whole Maidan was organized from behind the Crimea. Five-columners went over with the desa that Yanukovych was preparing documents for indefinite use of Sevastopol. As always, the lack of imagination and analytical skills starts the idiot process. Yanukovych was not just pro-Russian, he is not even like that today, because his accounts in the west were not blocked for a single day. And he uses VISA Inc., California, and Diners Club Schweiz. G * nida he is American, and the only thing in vain saved him. Although it is clear what they wanted to make of him such an exiled government, a legitimate president. Only then he spat in Russia.

          It seems that Yanukovych was "saved" to create a temporary vacuum in the Ukrainian government and return Crimea during this period of anarchy. Perhaps, had he stayed in Ukraine, he would have accepted all the conditions of the United States, including the Crimea. I don’t think he would have been killed, why? He would have signed everything anyway. Basically, Putin just used the situation in Kiev wisely.

            In principle, Putin just wisely used the situation in Kiev.


            Without diminishing the significance of our President, all the same, the Crimeans themselves returned the Crimea. You can attach, return only uninhabited land. Lands inhabited, have a master, inhabitants, that is, people. They are the owners. That's how they ruled their land in a businesslike way. A nod to them both from the insignificant Asadullah and from the historical personality of Putin. And I am sure that most Russians will bow to me. Overwhelming majority. A separate bow to the leadership of the country, for not fearing the Western reaction, went to sanction and power risks. Managed to organize everything according to the highest level. Personally, I thought that all the same, from the Crimea they would make an enclave, like Transnistria. But no, it turned out to underestimate the strength of Putin's nerves. Well, being Russian is a deadly diagnosis. He became, and die. Many of course do not understand the meaning of Crimea, but I will say only one thing: Crimea completely covers the solar plexus of Russia. All expenditures of the West to incite a war in the Caucasus, all expenditures on the forehead of the Chechen wars, expenditures on Georgia and Nabucco, on orange and Maidan Ukraine, on the fight against the South Stream, were thrown into the wind. This is the same as building a dam on the world river for decades, and the Russian bear took, and sent water in the other direction. Now they run around the facility, play paintball, poke NATO stars on their knees and shoulders, try to connect turbines to sails, and make them gray-gray-gray in all corners of their built brainchild. And Russia, hid behind such a shield, the grandeur of which is realized only after a few generations.

      "NATO is afraid ..." Fear is the lot of the strong, so this term does not apply to all of you. If Washington had not secretly deployed nuclear weapons in Turkey in 1961, the Cuban missile crisis would not have happened. And the USSR would not have deployed its force grouping in Cuba. And the world would not have stood on the verge of World War III back in the sixties. And we also remember the help of Soviet Russia to Kemal in the war for Turkey's independence and the Treaty of Friendship and Cooperation. And we also remember that at the Yalta Conference in February 1945, Stalin made a special statement about the Black Sea Straits, demanding free passage of Soviet warships through the straits at any time. Churchill and Roosevelt agreed to these demands. And we remember well the entry of Turkey into NATO later. So the actions of Russia and its fleet are now preemptive. Our partners have lost trust, apparently for a long time. So get used to it, gentlemen, get used to it. Russia's actions in the Black Sea are preemptive and absolutely justified.

    Tu-22M3 - a thunderstorm of aircraft carriers. Finding an enemy carrier group in the Sea of ​​Japan and opening its air defense system was a rather difficult task. The Americans well masked such groups "in the shadow" of numerous islands, so even from the air with the help of radar it was quite difficult to detect them, moreover, working radars allow the ships to quickly detect aircraft and prepare for them a worthy meeting. Despite this, our pilots, proving their professionalism, were able, until the last moment without finding themselves, to find an enemy aircraft carrier. Then fighters flew to intercept them. One of them flew so close that you could see a smile on the face of an American pilot. He winked at the commander and showed the belly of his plane with air-to-air missiles. To this, the Soviet missile carriers turned their twin cannon mounts. It would seem that this "exchange of courtesies" will end, but the American pilot decided to joke. With a smile on his face, he began to offer the Soviet missile carriers to board the aircraft carrier. At this time, there was a multi-purpose Kitty Hawk downstairs, on the deck of which there were anti-submarine aircraft, fighters, reconnaissance aircraft - flights were conducted.

    As befits a real landing, landing gears and flaps are released, the plane is reduced. It is difficult to understand whether it is an imitation or not, if you are not in the cockpit of a huge missile carrier landing on the deck. The Americans have already begun to imagine what would happen if such a colossus landed on the deck. The Tu-22M3 would simply take down all the planes and people from the deck, damage the superstructure and the command post. And the fire from a collision if there were tons of kerosene and two powerful missiles on board the 50, each of which weighs 5 tons, would have had to be extinguished more than one day. Imitation landing failed. Considering then the pictures taken, one could consider the panic that arose on board the aircraft carrier. In fairness, it is worth noting that this story is more like an army bike. And on the network you can find another version of it, which featured Tu-95 aircraft. The images taken from the aircraft are not declassified, as are the names of the pilots performing this approach.

    According to the NATO military committee, “Russia is creating in the sea areas of military power that go beyond its borders ...

    And if you recall the United States, its area of ​​military power, long away(!!!!!) sticking out beyond its borders, then Russia is simply marking time at its borders, cooling the hot heads of those who rub and scream at these borders about "the most aggressive Russia"
    “The Black Sea is very vulnerable. Russia is returning to the game that it played during the years of the Cold War and before it. The essence of the game is to treat the Black Sea as something like a Russian lake ”

    Nooo, it's all of you playing war games, and Russia just says: "Get out of my borders, stick your head around, get it in full!"

    From the coast of Crimea, the Black Sea is shot lengthwise and across, by any means of armament. Nato leaked the Black Sea when the Crimea leaked ... everything seems to be clear

    The operation in Crimea showed the increased professionalism of our armed forces. The price was too high. In fact, the whole maidan masquerade was started in order to squeeze out our "unsinkable" aircraft carrier, our Crimea. So many times drenched in the blood of our warriors. To give Crimea to amers meant to get a knife in the hypochondrium of Russia.

    I would recommend that the gentlemen of NATO better learn history.
    In later times, VI-XVII centuries, both in Russian and in Arabic, Italian and other sources, due to the active navigation of the Slavs, the name "Russian Sea" was used. In the "Tale of Bygone Years" it says, "And Dnepr is draining into the Pontic Sea three ereli, the sea is the same as Ruska ..."
    And this didn’t bother anyone.

    In the X-XIV centuries, this sea was really called the Russian Sea. This is a historical fact. And Russian blood was shed on this sea immeasurably in the battles for Russia. So everything is true - this is the Russian sea! Well, doubters can be convincingly convinced ...

    Do not push NATO to the borders of RUSSIA and the shores of the Black Sea, then no one will call it a "lake". And the adviser, Yerdogan, needs to carefully study the history of his country.

    "I told him (NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg):" You are almost not in the Black Sea. It has practically become a Russian lake. If we do not act now, history will not forgive us, "RIA Novosti quoted Erdogan as saying in Istanbul on the meeting of the chiefs of staff of the Balkan countries.


    The Black Sea in ancient times was called the "Russian Sea". And the Turk continues to shit and immediately hopes to cut the dough on Russian tourists. An abomination.

    “You are almost absent from the Black Sea. It has practically become a Russian lake. If we do not act now, history will not forgive us,”

    Of course, history will not forgive you, it will punish you once again!!! What connects Americans with the Black Sea is only political ambitions. And Russians are connected with the Black Sea by the life and history of the Russian state; this is fixed subconsciously at the genetic level.
    Do Americans have such songs about the Black Sea? And that's it...

    "The sea in distant years
    She sang songs to me like a mother.
    "The sea taught me
    To meet menacing storms.
    The sailor's cabin is dear to me,
    Our modest home -
    The bluest thing in the world
    The Black Sea is mine..." (Performed by Georg Ots)

    Homeland, where my friend is young
    Lying fired by battle.
    It’s not without reason that a golden wreath was made for him
    And my city is called a Hero!
    And my city was named Hero, by the Black Sea. (Performer Cliffs)

    Baikal is a lake, but we call it the “sacred sea”. If you want to call the Black Sea a Russian lake, call it, but just remember, it is sacred to us. And the Russians know how to protect their shrines!!!

    There seems to be a problem with the mapping service at NATO headquarters. They took old maps where the Black Sea was called the Russian Sea, and they can’t understand what it is? And the publisher is from London, and the outlines of the sea are familiar, but where did the name come from? And it came from Rome, and from Byzantium, good gentlemen. Back in the 6th-17th centuries, on all navigational and geographical maps, this name referred to all the familiar outlines of our sea.

    One gets the impression that the “NATO Military Committee” is staffed exclusively by people with cerebral palsy and there is no one, sick, to tell them what kind of nonsense they publish.

    Their stupidity is similar to the statement: “Somehow the Gulf of Mexico is becoming an inland lake of the United States. If we don’t do anything about it, history will not forgive us!”

    Don’t the weirdos from this military committee really understand what idiots they look like?

    NATO is an international army led by the United States, created to counter the Soviet Union.
    During the Second World War, the Soviet Union greatly developed its army, now it was many times stronger than any army on the continent. So its neighbors decided to unite to fight the Soviet Union on equal terms.

    So that Europeans have no doubts about the need for NATO, they constantly shout in the media that the Russians are coming, now a submarine, now a ship, now an airplane, they will be attacked tomorrow, so NATO seems to be very necessary.

    Benefits:
    The United States, through NATO, gets the opportunity to deploy its military and equipment in many countries, and other countries can count on the support of the US Army. In addition, there are business benefits.

    Disadvantage:
    NATO countries have to maintain sanctions and thereby reduce their income, but they isolate only one country; they can trade with the rest.

    So NATO is a tool for NATO countries to benefit from, you don’t need to pay attention to their whining that the Russians are coming - they repeat this so that NATO doesn’t fall apart, but you need to pay attention to the actions taken against Russia, not respond in a mirror, but calmly analyze situation and take measures with minimal damage to yourself and with benefit.

    Russia needs to develop international relations in the field of trade and in the cultural sphere; this will create maximum problems for NATO.

    The Russian Army does not need to be weakened because of whining abroad, it needs to be updated little by little and undergo training.

    The Varangians are also the Russian Sea. The Varangians are also Slavs, and the Slavic lands stretched from the White Sea to the Sea of ​​Marmara and beyond. And that country was Gardarika, which meant the land of cities. And this was long before the first house from bricks


    Well, the Black Sea was dug up by the ancient Ukrainians, so it should be called not the Black Sea, but the Ukrainian Sea! fool fool fool fool
