“Sending some marines to pick up the ship the Russians bought from the Frogs?”

Definitely to send a message to the French, I think.

Russia demonstrating that it can project force to several paces, if they need to.

the French suspended delivery of the vessel, due to the circumstances.

do the Russians sail competently? are they known for smart ship handling? do they know what they are doing in those crowded and dangerous waters?
