Anonymous Coward User ID: 80046166 France 02/12/2022 05:42 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | MOSCOW, February 12. /TASS/. Russia has handed a note to US military attache in connection with the US nuclear-powered submarine’s incident in Russia’s waters near the Kuril Islands, the Defense Ministry said on Saturday. “On February 12, a representative of the office of the military attache for defense issues at the US Embassy in Moscow has been handed over a note at the Main Directorate of the International Military Cooperation of Russia’s Defense Ministry in connection with the violation of Russia’s state border by the US Navy’s submarine,” the statement said. Submarines in the exercise areas are nothing new, Russia, US, UK do this all the time, what is new is that this one was detected and tracked within Russia’s territorial waters. According to the ministry, a Virginia-class submarine belonging to the US Navy was detected on February 12, 2022 at 10.40 (Moscow Time) in the area of the Pacific Fleet’s drills near Iturup Island of the Kuril Islands. Under the guiding documents on protection of the Russian state border in the underwater environment, the crew of the Pacific Fleet’s frigate Marshal Shaposhnikov used appropriate means. The US submarine started a self-propelled simulator to split the target image on radar and acoustic control means into two parts and retreated from Russian territorial waters at a maximum speed, the ministry said. And this very public move by Russia was also done for a reason–to demonstrate that there are enough forces to deal with any threat. Russia plans to start the exercises of a nuclear triad pretty soon too (in Russian). So, a lot of firepower on display. Scary, eh? [link to thesaker.is (secure)] |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 80923370 United States 02/12/2022 06:33 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Last couple days I have seen headlines that Russia is about to invade Ukraine. It's the other way around though, US is about to invade Russia using Ukraine. Quoting: Peepaws If the US really wanted to invade Russia do you think we would put our troops near where 70% of the Russian troops have been moved into? At this point if the US wanted to invade Russia they would come from east into Russia, not from europe.. If the US has posted its troops as a defense,that's the only reason to put them near ukraine where Russia has massed 70% of its troops. It would make no sense to try to invade Russia at its strongest area. Amassing troops at Russian border as a defense? Imagine the Russians amassing their troops at the US border - as a defense. Russia already is. They are called subs. So you really think the US is trying to invade Russia by going straight through Ukraine where Russia has a majority of its troops stationed? I know Russia puts out this propaganda for its people. I just always thought its people were smart and didn't believe it. |
