In fact Russians know a things or two about building ships. US Military Sealift Command operates former-Soviet ship for most critical missions. No French ships so far.

Shouldn’t be a problem for year round operations so long as the Russians only use them 30 degrees on either side of the equator.

It might be -7C (19.4F) but it is very strange that the vessel is unable to operate in the winter.

The Russians are probably angry at someone in Dallas (2:38) in this extremely strange video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=RsdkV9Z0QjE#! Is this an official video with an attack on Texas?
