Black Sea Fleet scattered to escape Ukrainian strikes and is now too far away from the war to be able to engage in it, a UK Minister said.
The Russian Black Sea Fleet has scattered to escape repeated Ukrainian strikes and consequently is now too far away from the war to be able to engage in it, a functional defeat, the British Armed Forces Minister said on Tuesday.
Heappey expressed his view, telling the conference: “the progress in Ukraine over the past few months has been slow, nobody can pretend otherwise, but anyone who thinks there was no progress at all is simply wrong… the importance of what has happened in the Black Sea over the last couple of weeks where a Russian submarine and a Russian ship have been put out of action and the headquarters of the Black Sea Fleet has been put out of action too.
A subsequent update underlined the scattering of the fleet to safer anchorages away from Ukrainian territory, stating that elements of the fleet werethe West are having in acquiring enough munitions to keep Ukrainian forces supplied. The minister spoke of how Europe has saved money by making defence procurement more efficient after the end of the Cold War, but this has also made industry less able to scale up in an emergency.
