You can change the title yourself.

A report from a news blog that uses Russian State propaganda as a source......

NATO isn't trying to move any ships into the Black Sea, so why would Turkey make any such decision, let alone make it public.

 

[Ahriman]

Yup.

Something has to be done about Russia, the world must understand that U.S. can't be ignored!
NATO must grow a pair and send troops to Ukraine right now.

Turkey being a NATO member is going to block NATO ships because Chinese diplomats have convinced the Turkish government to not grant permission for NATO ships???

 

[Hamartia Antidote]

Why would NATO send ships into the Black Sea. There are multiple NATO countries on Ukraine's borders.

Right now the Turkish Government is angry at the U.S because of their support for the Gulen Movement which is what could explain this move.I personally didn't believe this report untill I saw it on Turkish State T.V. TRT but I am still skeptical.

I think the mighty iran should take all their make believe advanced weapons system, go to Crimea and repel those russians. Show everyone what you got.

Right now the Turkish Government is angry at the U.S because of their support for the Gulen Movement which is what could explain this move. Also Turkey is about to finalize an air defence missile deal with China. I personally didn't believe this report untill I saw it on Turkish State T.V. TRT.
