You really think that Turkey would attack, or even PING, a U.S. submarine quietly making passage through the strait at night submerged?

American subs have to declare and surface when going through the strait. Then total tonnage is limited.

And as of March 2022, no warships are allowed to transit other than Russian warships returning to Sevastopol.

Turkey has been unwavering in enforcing the treaty since 1936.

Isn’t that what they said the last time around... Turkey stepped in then and escorted the ships.

Turkey has EVERY right to attack ANY foreign military vessel going through the strait without their permission.

At the very least Turkey would publicly announce to the world that an American military submarine had just illegally gone through the strait, violating a major agreement which the USA has promised to honor.

Just like in 1915.

Everyone assumes Russia could or would implement a naval blockade, what type of air force or air defense systems exist in Southern Ukraine to stop aerial attacks on any ship attempting to load/unload cargo at Odessa.

Ukraine has no air force that can do anything, I doubt they have air defense systems covering that area considering Russia controls most of Southern Ukraine.

“The clown actually said he thinks military submarines can sneak their way past the strait LOL”

That’s because he doesn’t know anything about the subject.

But he knows Jack.

Keep demonstrating your abject ignorance.

It’s amusing.

We’re we talking about Moskva? No, we were not.

I do not know what makes you so stupid, but it really works. Grow up, kid.

The worst tragedy of all this is that Slavs are killing Slavs when instead, the world should be exterminating democrats and the Deep State.

The world will be a better place when the evil Biden regime is liquidated along with the GloboHomo Golden Calf puppet masters.

I too am surprised Russia ever trusted them. Bad faith Ukraine launched its marine drones from the humanitarian shipping corridor to attack the Kerch Strait Bridge. I expect Russia will now mine waters outside Odessa as well.

Your article states clearly the ship make a port call in Gölcük...which is actually on the SOUTH side of that strait and NOT on the Black Sea.

Now you have a geography problem.

your article you posted was lying. The destroyer was visiting the Turkish port of Gölcük, which is NOT in the black sea past the strait

Actions have consequences. Ukraine asked for this.

As Hunter would say:

May it be blow.

From the link you posted:

-—For example, do not accuse them of being a “Putinista”, “commrade”, “murderer”, “baby-killer”, etc, just because he may have a difference of opinion whether or not the US government should be involved in a controversial foreign war where we were not attacked.-—
