U.S. to send two warships to Black Sea, Russia voices concerns

Change language:
The United States will send two warships to the Black Sea next week, Turkey said on Friday as Russia, which has boosted its military forces near Ukraine, accused NATO powers that do not have a coast line in the region of increasing naval activity.
The Pentagon declined to discuss Turkey’s comments but said the military routinely sends ships to the region. “That’s not anything new,” Pentagon spokesman John Kirby said in Washington, referring to U.S. military ships in the Black Sea.
Washington says Russia has amassed more troops on Ukraine’s eastern border than at any time since 2014, when it annexed Crimea from Ukraine and backed pro-Russian separatists in the eastern Donbass region of Ukraine. Violence has flared between Ukrainian troops and the separatists. Russian President Vladimir Putin, during a telephone conversation with Turkey’s President Tayyip Erdogan, accused Ukraine on Friday of “dangerous provocative actions” in the Donbass region.
Turkey, a NATO ally, said on Friday the United States would deploy two warships to the Black Sea from April 14-15. “A notice was sent to us 15 days ago via diplomatic channels that two U.S. warships would pass to the Black Sea, in line with the Montreux Convention. The ships will remain in the Black Sea until May 4,” Turkey’s foreign ministry said.






World War 3 is on the way. The US/NATO is going to be defeated and Hungary would do well to withdraw from its purchase agreement for missiles from the US unless Hungary would like to be on the losing side of its 3rd world war and omnce agin be invaded and an occupied Russian client state. It would be better for Hungary to remain neutral this time. War is coming people, wake up.
