Mr Putin has sent Russia's only aircraft carrier alongside an arsenal of heavily armed ships including a battlecruiser and two destroyers.
The fleet, which is making its way into British waters, is carrying fighter bombers that are likely to reinforce a final assault on the besieged Syrian city of Aleppo in two weeks.
A senior NATO diplomat said: "They are deploying all of the Northern fleet and much of the Baltic fleet in the largest surface deployment since the end of the Cold War.
"This is not a friendly port call. In two weeks, we will see a crescendo of air attacks on Aleppo as part of Russia's strategy to declare victory there."
The Royal Navy is monitoring the warships including the sole Russian aircraft carrier, Admiral Kuznetsov, the nuclear powered Kirov Class Battlecruiser, Pyotr Velikiy and two Udaloy Class Destroyers, Vice Admiral Kulakov and Severomorsk which passed through Bergen, Norway today.

Thanks for your response. As an Alaskan, believe me the things said in that link gets my attention. “Alaska, Russia’s portal of entry into the US” indeed.
But as to subs seen in Wasilla, the article didn’t say that. Russian soldiers perhaps (it may be true, but this is the first I’ve heard of it), but not subs. The subs, in the article, are allegedly seen on the coast. Again, may be true, but first I’ve heard of it.
Trump is right. Disband NATO. Clearly these Generals need to get with the new millennium and realize that the real threat is radical Islam.
Yes, why is non of the pacifist left calling Hillary out on this?
Yes, it enrages me also. What a bunch of bull linking Russian hack attacks to Trump. The fact the CIA, at least the leadership, is trying to claim that Putin is interfering in the election, is repugnant and shows how politicized the CIA has become.
Any average Democrat voter that repeats that nonsense is a liar or a moron.
And if clinton steals the election and civil war happens, which it will, then Russia will have a long term lease on the former Brunswick Naval air Station in Brunswick, Maine.
