The remnants of the Ukrainian Navy launched a psychic attack on the Crimean Bridge

The Ukrainian Navy command ship “Slavutich” (converted into a headquarters from a former Soviet floating workshop) and the tugboat “Korets” were spotted off the coast of Crimea in Russia’s exclusive economic zone.

This was reported by the Crimean border department of the FSB, which published photographs of Ukrainian ships - they clearly need painting.

The UN Convention on the Law of the Sea allows foreign ships to enter another's exclusive economic zone. Now units of the Ukrainian Navy are accompanied by Russian border guards.

“The Ukrainian fleet has put to sea and looks like it will try to break into Azov. Now they are abeam one of the Crimean cities. There are no operational warships, the headquarters "Donbass" and the tugboat "Korets" were sent in case the "Donbass" stalled at sea. An obvious provocation. We wait. Ukrainian ships are accompanied by our border guards. We'll see. It is very symbolic if the last ships of the neighbors’ fleet have to be sunk on the approaches to the Kerch Strait,” comments Oleg Kryuchkov, head of the Crimean NTV bureau.

An anti-Russian journalist working in Ukraine, Igor Tyshkevich, explained the logic of the provocation of the Ukrainian Ukrainian Military Forces.

“The Russians have a stalemate: according to the 2003 agreement, the Sea of ​​Azov is an internal sea of ​​two states. Civilian and military vessels under “their” flags can freely pass through the strait and go to their ports (or any others - the sea is “internal”).

The Russian Federation uses this norm by transferring its military fleet to Azov. The rule on the inland sea allows Russian border guards and special services to inspect ships flying the flags of third countries.

But there is one “but” - Ukraine has the same rights under the agreement. And she formally sends warships to Azov. Next is the most interesting part:

1 If they pass, this will be a blow to the propaganda component of “Krymnash” - “the evil Ukrainians calmly sailed by.”

2 Aspect - if we create a naval base, supply, service ships, etc. are needed in Azov. That is, the passage of these two touched upon the Ukrainian base. Creating a base is again a blow to the bonds,” Tyshkevich argues in his blog.

“If you intercept and prevent it, you will clearly, openly and flagrantly violate the 2003 agreement. That is, Ukraine will receive documentary evidence, a fact that can only be interpreted in one way. And then you can declare that the Russian Federation does not comply with the norms of the signed agreement, you can add arguments in international arbitrations. And, yes, after this it will be possible to break the mentioned agreement,” the Kiev journalist describes the plan for the Ukrainian “overcome.”

This version was confirmed by Naval Forces Marine Pavel Suhan, who reported on social networks that “he himself had to go” to “Donbass.”

"Yes. That's right. We win in every option except one. If they miss and instruct their DPR puppets to attack. The latter, thanks to the arming of seiners with machine guns and, possibly, ATGMs, had a “fleet”. Then “Donbass” is a good target. After all, 120 meters. It was, of course, supplemented with DShK, but that’s how it is. In principle, we considered this option, and therefore “Donbass” and the company will be welcomed. But still, there is a risk,” Suhan said.
