Russia sending warships to the Mediterranean: report
AFPAFP – Thu, Aug 29, 2013
Russia will “over the next few days” be sending an anti-submarine ship and a missile cruiser to the Mediterranean as the West prepares for possible strikes against Syria, the Interfax news agency said on Thursday.
“The well-known situation shaping up in the eastern Mediterranean called for certain corrections to the make-up of the naval forces,” a source in the Russian General Staff told Interfax.
“A large anti-submarine ship of the Northern Fleet will join them (the existing naval forces) over the next few days.
“Later it will be joined by the Moskva, a rocket cruiser of the Black Sea Fleet which is now wrapping up its tasks in the northern Atlantic and will soon begin a Transatlantic voyage towards the Strait of Gibraltar.”
I’m sure the Russians are not moving Warships to Syrian for a Boat Show.
Wow. Thanks for the news bit.
So now the choice is to go to war with Russia over a country that we have no interest in, or
back down and look weak, which will only encourage future attacks on Americans, a la Jimmy Carter.
All because Obama made a threat he had no intention of backing.
