Readers of the Chinese edition of “Guancha” laughed at the exercises of NATO and Ukraine in the Black Sea. The agency’s website published a material about the Alliance ships that entered the water area. At the same time, the author of the article noted that relations between Russia and the West worsened last week after the British destroyer entered the territorial waters of Russia.
According to the publication, the Italian frigate frigate ITS Virginio Fasan passed the Bosphorus Strait on July 1 and entered the waters of the Black Sea together with the Turkish frigate TCG Barbaros and the Romanian ship ROS Regina Maria.
They will take part in the Sea Breeze exercises organized by the United States and Ukraine. Tactical maneuvers began earlier this week.
The Russian Foreign Ministry criticized the provocations of NATO. Maria Zakharova said that the Black Sea area is being deliberately turned by Washington and its Alliance partners into a zone of military confrontation, which threatens world stability.
“I want to know if these three ships will be able to hold out for at least half an hour in a real battle?” one of the readers of the publication asked.
Another commentator said that NATO is a toy in the hands of the United States. He believes that if other members of the Alliance continue to play the games of the Americans, they risk being destroyed.
“Italy, Romania, the Netherlands-they, it turns out, had ships? Weird. Now we know, it’s good, ” wrote another user of the Network.
Another reader believes that the Black Sea “looks like a fish pond”. He noted that Russia should hurry up and catch as many fish as possible.
