Russian ships should accompany a French frigate of invisibility during his stay in the Black sea, said the first Deputy Chairman of the Federation Council Committee on international Affairs Vladimir Jabbarov. His point of view, the Senator shared in an interview with National news service (NSN) on Friday, March 17.

According to dzhabarov, the only purpose of the direction of European ships in the waters — “to show that they exist”, and should be treated calmly. “We need to show that we have a Navy, we have the opportunity ride in front of them. Probably, it is necessary to withdraw some of the ships that accompanied him in international waters,” said the Senator.

He urged to take the same measures that Western countries respond to the presence of Russian cruisers close to their borders. “And then we will see how he is invisible, this ship,” — said dzhabarov. The MP stressed that Russia must show its presence, but in any case not to succumb to provocations.

Earlier Friday it was reported that the French frigate Lafayette F710 entered the Black sea and should be in the direction of Bulgaria. The ship is constructed on technology “a stealth” which allows him to be invisible to radar.
