“Stay away”. Russia sends an unequivocal message to the US naval presence in the Black Sea.
Russia has lost patience with the US presence in the Black Sea which is deemed useless and dangerous, as stated directly by Moscow's Deputy Foreign Minister, Sergei Ryabkov .
“There is absolutely nothing for American ships to do near our shores, this is purely provocative action. Provocative in the direct sense of the word: they are testing our strength, playing on our nerves. They will not succeed "
" The United States is our adversary and is doing everything possible to undermine Russia's position on the world stage ," Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov said from Russian news agencies.
“ We don't see any other elements in their approach. These are our conclusions, ”the agencies said citing.
The answer is particularly harsh for the diplomatic world, accustomed to much more muffled and possibilistic tones. Rarely does one address this between states.
US President Joe Biden said in March that he viewed his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin as a "killer" who would "pay a price" for alleged meddling in US elections – an allegation Moscow denies.
Ryabkov's remarks suggest that Russia in turn will strongly oppose what it sees as unacceptable US interference in its own area of concern.
"We warn the United States that it will be best for them to stay away from Crimea and our Black Sea coast. It will be for their own good, " Ryabkov said.
Meanwhile, the West is sounding the alarm about what appears to be a large and inexplicable build-up of Russian forces near Ukraine's eastern border and in the Crimea. NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg on Tuesday called on Moscow to withdraw these troops, but Moscow replied that the movement of its troops is exclusively internal problems.
The situation appears worrying, with a dangerous build-up of forces on the border between Russia and Ukraine and also in the Black Sea, with at least two US ships present in the area.
