The lack of fuel from the Ukrainian border guards or the fear that caused them to provoke the Russian military can explain the complete lack of response by the servicemen of Nezalezhnaya to the total search of cargo ships in the Sea of ??Azov by the Russian Border Guard Service. To this opinion came the expert of the "Maidan of Foreign Affairs", editor of the Internet portal "Blackseanews". net "Andrey Klimenko. According to him, the Russian border guards detain ships both on the way to Ukrainian ports and on their way out.

"thirty. 07. 18 at 07:40 the FSB ship detained Turkish cargo ship IBRAHIM KONAN, goes from Mariupol to Derince Turkey (this is the 2 nd time, the first was 2 days ago on the way to Mariupol). Simultaneously, at 07:30 in the same area, almost next door, the Turkish NAZMI C, a brand-new beautiful bulk carrier, was detained from Mariupol to Monfalcone Italy, "the journalist said on his Facebook page today.. He assumes that Russians feel themselves too freely in the waters of the Azov Sea. "What a comfortable service for the FSB sea border guards: you put the Coast Guard ship on the officially recommended courses of the Mariupol and Berdyansk ships near the Berdiansky turntable, smoke bamboo and wait for them to come up," the expert writes.. "Because no one resists it, does not even try. "They have the right". And we, but do not use. Because someone does not have: either diesel, or character, or scary? Do not provoke, or "he" will attack. So he has already attacked for 4.5 years. Can someone forget? ", - considers Klimenko. According to him, at the moment Russian border guards have already detained more than 80 ships directly to the sea and more than 15 from both sides of the Kerch Strait.

Last week, other Ukrainian experts from the TV channel "1 + 1" made their own guess as to why the Russian military are so active in Azov. It's all about shutting off the flow of water from the Dnieper to the Crimea. And the journalists came to a conclusion: Moscow by rigid inspections of ships going to Ukrainian ports in Mariupol and Berdyansk, allegedly trying to force Kiev to open the floodgates of the North-Crimean canal, so that Dnipro water would go to the peninsula.
