Frightful.

This is coolbert:

Really! Is all this necessary? Maybe interpreted wrongly in the wrong place?

Unprecedented? Unheard of? At a time of crisis!

"5 NATO aircraft carriers patrolling together in show of force around Europe"

From American Military News ^ | 11/18/22 | Justin Cooper the tip from Freeper.

"NATO is making a show of force this month with five aircraft carriers operating in the Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean Sea, one month after the alliance and Russia held rival nuclear exercises amid the latter’s ongoing invasion of Ukraine. Two U.S. carriers are involved: the USS George H.W. Bush and the USS Gerald R. Ford, according to a U.S. Navy press release. The other three carriers are the U.K.’s HMS Queen Elizabeth and the flagships of the French and Italian navies: the Charles De Gaulle and Cavour. The exercise allows NATO forces to practice working together."

Always in such circumstances think Proud Prophet and Able Archer. War game simulations and command post exercises that honestly frightened certain elements of the Soviet political and military hierarchy during the Cold War. 

Decision makers in Moscow within the context of the tense international situation caused by the Ukraine Conflict can easily see such an exercise as a prelude to WAR with NATO? Rehearsal for the possible beginning of WW3 for all that will mean.
