Russian warships cross Turkey's Bosphorus Strait, en route to Syria

[T-123456]

then it'll cost Turkey billions and it'll fvck up Istanbul's unique geography. European side will become an island in the middle and... I don't want to think

either we're being ruled by complete retards or this project will be cancelled

Well lets hope people vote different this time,it sure doesnt look like it.

All Erdogan needs is 1 chemical-tipped shell to land in a Turkish village near the border and kill a cat..

Then he WILL call on Nato, the Patriot missiles are already in place (They cleverly moved them there prior to war)

If 1 NATO member is attacked, the rest will have to come to help.. Turkey can do it on their own but there's no need..

The list looks like this to me:

NATO: USA, France, Turkey, probably Jordan too.. Saudi Arabia and Qatar for cash and Arab support..

AGAINST: Syria, Russia, Iran and China... and lil' Hezbollah..

Start the World War III..

Russian warships cross Bosphorus, en route to Syria

Istanbul

Three Russian warships crossed Turkey's Bosphorus Strait Thursday en route to the eastern Mediterranean, near the Syrian coast, amid concern in the region over potential US-led strikes in response to the Damascus regime's alleged use of chemical weapons.

The SSV-201 intelligence ship Priazovye, accompanied by the two landing ships Minsk and Novocherkassk passed through the Bosphorus known as the Istanbul strait that separates Asia from Europe, an AFP photographer reported.

The Priazovye on Sunday started its voyage from its home port of Sevastopol in Ukraine "to the appointed region of military service in the eastern Mediterranean", a military official told the Interfax news agency.

Russia, a key ally of Damascus, has kept a constant presence of around four warships in the eastern Mediterranean in the Syrian crisis, rotating them every few months.

It also has a naval base in the Syrian port of Tartus whose origins date back to Moscow's close relationship with Damascus under the Soviet Union.

Moscow vehemently opposes the US-led plans for military action against the regime of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad in response to the chemical attack outside Damascus last month.

Russian President Vladimir Putin warned on Wednesday that any US Congress approval for a military strike against Syria without UN consensus would represent an "aggression".

How come Russia warships can go through the strait deeply without Turkey or NATO objections? Didn't Turkish warships confront it to prevent them?

I think Russian should also send Destroyers, Frigates, Corvettes, SSKs and SSBNs as well.

The point is that we have one of the world's largest submarine fleets, not to mention the surface fleet and the airforce... Few outdated russian ships won't stand a chance. In the end only purpose they serve will be showing their flag.

Russian ships are big in displacement but they are all rusty

Diesel submarines are definitely a major challenge anyway and will cause us huge problems in the Mediterranean and give us a bloody nose.But if you are thinking about your surface ships and airforce they will be only targets for our cruise and ballistic missiles.

when they are in air bases on the ground.For ships ,it is possible to target with BM's if necessary guidance from russian spy satellites and targetting systems be provided.But we also have supersonic sea skimmers like yakhonts,moskit and klub.
