The USS Harry S. Truman aircraft carrier strike group and NATO allies will launch a major military exercise in the Mediterranean Sea on Monday as concerns surge over Russia’s massing of forces and looming invasion of Ukraine.
The exercise, which has been planned since 2020, will include multiple nations and demonstrate that the trans-Atlantic alliance is “united, capable and strong,” Pentagon spokesman John Kirby said Friday.
The announcement comes as those bonds may be tested. President Joe Biden raised doubts Wednesday about the U.S. and NATO countries being unified in response to Russian aggression in Ukraine.
“I think what you’re going to see is that Russia will be held accountable if it invades,” Biden said during a press conference. “And it depends on what it does. It’s one thing if it’s a minor incursion and then we end up having a fight about what to do and not do, et cetera.”
The “minor incursion” comment sparked a concerned response from the Ukrainians and fueled criticism that Biden was giving Putin an opening to invade — or at least running the risk of causing a miscalculation among nations at the brink of conflict.
As a show of alliance unity, the Truman strike group will sail under NATO control as the centerpiece of Neptune Strike ’22. It includes a carrier air wing with nine squadrons, four guided missile destroyers, and a Ticonderoga-class cruiser that has been in the Mediterranean on a routine deployment.
Vice Adm. Gene Black, commander of the Navy 6th Fleet based in Naples, Italy, will be in command of the carrier. He has a “dual-hatted” role as the commander of Striking and Support Forces NATO.
Several NATO allies will participate in the coordinated maritime maneuvers, anti-submarine warfare training and long-range strike training, according to Kirby, who did not name the other nations and referred questions to the alliance.
“As we conduct large-scale exercises, some people participate in some sections of it and not others based on their own operational demands and schedules, as well as the capabilities that they’re trying to improve,” Kirby said.
The exercise to show NATO solidarity will start as Russia is ready “at any moment” to launch an invasion of Ukraine, a former part of the Soviet Union, White House press secretary Jen Psaki said earlier this week.
Russian President Vladimir Putin has demanded guarantees that Ukraine will not be admitted to NATO as he amassed about 100,000 troops near Russia’s border with the country in recent months.
Biden warned Wednesday that Russia would pay a “serious and dear price” for an invasion through sanctions imposed by the U.S. and other nations in the alliance. His administration hasn’t proposed using military force to expel the Russians if Putin gives the invasion a green light.
“We’ve had very frank discussions, Vladimir Putin and I, and the idea that NATO is not going to be united, I don’t buy,” the president said during a marathon press conference at the White House.
Psaki sought to clarify the president’s earlier comments that suggested a limited invasion could cause disagreements among allies.
“If any Russian military forces move across the Ukrainian border, that’s a renewed invasion, and it will be met with a swift, severe, and united response from the United States and our allies,” she said in a released statement.
Aircraft carriers are military fossils, & only effective against B & C powers.
As a British citizen I would rather that the British Government not get involved.
As per Aircraft carriers………
Back in the 1970s, the American Admiral, Rickover, the “Father of nuclear navy,” had to answer this question before the U.S. Senate, “How long would our aircraft carriers survive in a battle against the Russian Navy?”
His response caused disillusionment, “Two or three days before they sink, maybe a week if they stay in the harbour.”
Really great to have your president sounding like a blithering idiot. Putin will eat Biden’s lunch.
SIX RUSSIAN LANDINGSHIPS
on way to gibraltar-bosporus and
US aircraft carriers on way to
bosporus . they could already kill
each other in the mediteranian .
WHY NOT ? JEW THEATRE ?
If this US-led aggressive exercise is in the east Mediterranean I wonder if the US intends to cause Russia problems in Syria at the same time as any war starts in Ukraine ie. it wants to steal Syria’s oil and try to remove Assad from power again? It’s been reported ISIS is resurgent in US illegally-occupied east Syria from where the US is still stealing the oil.
Is that the American ship captained by a tranny?
More Zionist aggressive threats from the US and it’s coerced Allie’s. Personally I would like to see the UK keeping well out out of any threatened conflicts, they have been kissing the arse of the Jewish controlled US for much too long and all because of being under the same political and financial control. If America wish to take on The Russian military let them try on their own, I suspect very strongly that the result would be as is normal for them, disaster looms but they are not interested in the number of American lives that will be lost or damaged plus the financial loss which again would see the tax payers of that country paying the bill and the Zionist arms manufacturers making billions of dollars.It is high time the free world recognised the true enemy and paid more attention in that direction.
That’s a very expensive reef to be.
Actually, that’s kind of comforting because if they believed that Russia might hit them with a few Granite cruise missiles (much less their hypersonic ones) that AC would be far away and at port.
R.C.
All the Russians have to do to stop the US is to make it clear that in any major conflict, Israel will be a priority target and obliterated.
If the US persists in arming Ukrainian terrorists and trying to start a brush war there, the Israelis may find that sophisticated weapons start to appear in Palestinian hands.
“’I think what you’re going to see is that Russia will be held accountable if it invades,’ Biden said during a press conference.” “Russia will be held accountable if it invades”, huh? Unlike all the times the Jewnited States and Israel have been held accountable for their egregious aggressive actions which have caused death, destruction, and mayhem everywhere they go. The hypocrisy is galling.
….
If politicians, bureaucrats, and media mongrels are howling for war and death and destruction, then it should be a requirement that they be the first ones into battle.
It looks like the most blatantly contrived war in the history of contrived wars might actually happen guys
I make a prediction that this year, and perhaps even very shortly, there will be extensive UFO activity – aka antigravity deep state tech – that will be showcased as “aliens” stepping into “give us a warning” or acting as “honest brokers”. Anyone who remembers the 1951 film “When The Earth Stood Still” might like to watch that one again as how the script might be played out.
Along similar lines Carol Rosin – associate of Wernher von Braun said something along the lines of…: “According to von Braun, space based weapons, later known as the “Star Wars” program, were to be publicly promoted as our space “shield” against the evil Russians. Then they would be promoted as our defense against terrorists from Third World countries (‘rogue’ nations or ‘nations of concern’). Then their necessity would be justified as protection against asteroids and meteors, and the “last card,” the final justification according to von Braun, would be their installation in orbit against an extraterrestrial threat from outer space….”
As we know “covid” is running out of steam and they need something BIG to distract folks with.
Bosporus is a needle eye + Turkey is
in Nato . so i think americans will
provoce a canal congestion so that
the russians cannot pass .
What do you think the criminal leaders in Zionist-Israel have decided to do in occupied Palestine if hell break loose in Ukraine? They “NEVER LET A CRISES GO TO WASTE”.
Are COVID-19 injections the “ethno-bomb” Israel began developing in the late 1990s?
Who developed the COVID-19 “vaccines?”
Albert Bourla has been with Pfizer since 1993. He was promoted to Chief Operating Officer in January 2018, before being appointed CEO later that year. Thus he has been in charge of Pfizer since the so-called pandemic commenced.
Bourla frequently speaks about his love of Israel and how his parents survived World War II. In fact he accepted the Theodor Herzl award on November 9, 2021. The award was created by Herzl’s World Zionist Organization, and is given to the most influential and important Zionist in the world. In his acceptance speech, Bourla compared November 9, 1938 (Kristallnacht) to November 9, 2020 when Pfizer announced that their mRNA injections were effective against COVID-19. Take that for what you will. Bourla did not develop the Pfizer mRNA injections. But he hand-picked the guys who did.
Dr. Mace Rothenberg was promoted to Chief Medical Officer by the new CEO Bourla in January 2019. Rothenberg led the entire development effort for Pfizer’s mRNA injections. He quit his job at Pfizer in January 2021, as soon as the mRNA shots he developed were deployed on the human race. Rothenberg is a Zionist. Mikael Dohlsten is the company’s Chief Scientific Officer and head of research and development. He is a Zionist as well.

There’s quite a bit of naivety on here – I guess there’s still some folks that think Russia isn’t controlled by the sons of Ashkenaz “those that pretend they are jews” just like the West? Too many sports fans “root for a team”..
– guess what, there are no “good guys” when it comes to politicians or governments anywhere in the world – and when there are, they are soon gone. It’s nose-feratu all the way down. – I see the end of the rabbit hole and it ain’t pretty. Why do you think they spent decades brainwashing people against jew-phobes pretending it’s “racism”. Hence all the attempts to keep “racism” going…

Covid is not running out of steam at all. It was a resounding success. The masses have been perfectly conditioned for extreme totalitarianism now with not a shot fired.
American citizens and their guns turn out to be utterly useless against potent mind control. Sun Tzu teaches this lesson in the Art of War.
America’s domestic affairs are a result of its Foreign affairs. Russia would smash America if it really wanted to. America’s can’t really fight, they lost badly in Vietnam, Iraqi insurgency rattled them in Iraq, then there is Afghanistan where Goat fuckers defeated them.
Americans are spinless Dogs. Never trust and American ever, they will cheat you call you all sorts of names when you lose.
Once when I was Yugoslavia when US bombed Belgrade Serbia for 77 days a few friends and I had a altercation with 3 Americans.
We beat them senseless and quite frankly we thought about killing them. One of our friends fathers worked at an Abattoir we discussed about putting their bodies through a Sauasge maker.
We decided not do do this as No American is worth serving Life in Prison for. But we enjoyed ramming us arse with Barbed wire wrapped around a broom Handle. We gave them heroin so they wouldn’t feel it.
Fuck the Yanky Scum. I spit on them Jew Lapdogs.

“Covid is not running out of steam at all” – (present tense). “It was a resounding success” – (past tense), and I agree. The repercussions on an individual health level will take years to play out in many cases.
Substitute “dinosaurs” or “The Roman Empire” for “covid”, and you’ll get my point. Suffice to say, the metaphorical comet has hit and the Germanic tribes are at the gates of Rome…
To Slobodan–Americans are always defeated by their own Yid government, not daftghans or gooks. The churches teach Jew-worship, of course, when they used to teach the irrelevance of Jews, who were allowed to hang around just to show what you become if you are not Christian.
@Anonymous
Russia could do same to Iran. Few nukes their way & ME wars are over. But they don’t exist. Fear porn for stupid ppl. Why has the UK no S400? THAAD? Seems strange that we have no missile defence system. I watched on Swedish TV a Naval expert talk about Submarine warfare, & he said a nation’s Submarine fleet was primary for intelligence gathering.

I tried 7-8 years ago putting a get on an Alien invasion. I went in 20 different bookies, none would take my money. Some asked for N & A And phone number.
