The American destroyer McCampbell courageously fell into a drift at a distance of about 400 km from the territorial waters of Russia. As noted in the message of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, all ground and naval military units of the Pacific Fleet control the actions of the destroyer. Moreover, under their control fall the actions of all the flood sites located in this territory.
The report of the Russian Ministry of Defense was a response to the statement of the militaristic agencies of the United States that the destroyer McCampbell allegedly made a bold raid along the coast of Russia. And he passed extremely close to Peter the Great Bay, which is located south of the Russian island. This is where one of the bases of the TF of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation is located. As reported in the American message, this bold gesture was made in order to rein in Russia's excessive claims on the seas and oceans. And as if it hints that the United States "will fly, swim and act wherever international law allows it."
As experts note, the destroyer raid was a kind of response to the detention by Russian border guards of the crews of three Ukrainian ships that entered the territorial waters of Russia.
However, the destroyer did not dare to accomplish what the American side says. And at the moment, showing his courage at a fair distance from the waters of Russia.
Recall, the destroyer McCampbell has on board cruise missiles of the "Tomahawk" type, as well as a vertical Mk41 type missile launcher for launching anti-ship missiles.
