World War 3: UK CONFRONTS Russia by sending warship to Black Sea

The US sent the Destroyer Ross the other day, by the way.


They are both there.


There are two NATO warships in the Agean and one at Izmir in position to enter the Black Sea at any time.

For background on recent developments in the Black Sea and the Azov:

Wtf

What part of North Atlantic Treaty Organization do they not understand?!

The hell they doing in the Black Sea for. Provoking full scale war?

Precisely

Black sea is British

During the 11th century, the area was overrun and controlled by nomads from the Eurasian steppe, led by the Cumans. Later that century, the Byzantine emperor Ἀλέξιος Κομνηνός Alexios I Komnenos (r. 1081–1118) was approached by Anglo-Saxon refugees, who had left England following the Norman conquest. Alexios offered land to these refugees in Thema Khersonos if they could recapture it from the nomads and there is contemporaneous evidence that a Byzantine-English colony was subsequently founded. For example, medieval nautical charts mention place names on the Kuban coast with possible English origins, including a port (located within or near the future site of Novorossiysk) known as Susaco (or Susacho) – a name that may have been derived from Sussex.

Snip

So it's not confronting - it's allowed there for 21 days.

Talk about about fake doom...

"Allowed"?

By whom?

Turkey?


:Edogan gollum:

At this point I hope Russia and China completely annihilate "the west". We are no longer fit to lead the world. Europe especially needs put out of its misery.

Interesting article in The Trumpet today, but it must be a banned link.


I'm not a JW.


But I read the Christian Science Monitor sometimes and I am not one of them either.

It is just political game.

All Nato ships in the Black See are siting ducks. Nothing will happen.

How exactly does that 21 day rule work? Can ships from the same country just get changed out to a different ships every 21 days and still be in accordance with the agreement? If so, the Montreux Treaty sounds like it's pretty much functionally meaningless.

Plenty of Russian warships sail through the English channel only a few miles from the shore of the UK all the time.

Usually bellowing out thick black smoke as they chug chug along.
