In the northern Black Sea, "no longer hiding, but officially," are Russian missile boats; the true purpose of their stay differs from the declared.

OBOZREVATEL was told by the Permanent Representative of the President of Ukraine in the Autonomous Republic of Crimea Boris Babin.

In the context of a report on the interception of a Russian small missile ship near the island of Zmeiny, the post-representative said: "I want to note that the Russian missile boats for today, primarily the so-called 41 brigade, which is based in the Crimea, today, without hiding, but officially, in the Russian media, are in the northern Black Sea area ".

According to Babin, the "legend", which is used to explain the location of such boats in this region, is designed for a "gullible reader" and has nothing to do with the reality.

"The legend of their stay is supposedly the protection of boreholes seized from the" Chornomornaftogaz ". In fact, you also understand that shooting rockets near such objects is a sophisticated suicide. This is gas, "he recalled..

In this context, he suggested that "their real goal is the actual fire control of the territorial sea of ??Ukraine off the coast of the Odessa and Mykolaiv regions".
