US Navy ships have been deployed to monitor the "Admiral Gorshkov" frigate armed with "Zircon" missiles, which arrived in Cuba. This was reported by CBS News, citing the White House.
It is known that the Russian frigate in Cuba will be joined by the nuclear submarine "Kazan" (project "Yasen-M") with guided missile weapons, the rescue tug "Nikolay Chiker" and the tanker "Academician Pashin".
According to White House National Security Spokesperson John Kirby, the United States is closely monitoring the maneuvers of the Russian Navy ships.
So, we're going to watch this. But we don't expect this to pose any threat to U.S. national security in the Caribbean region or anywhere else.
According to CBS News, the submarine "Kazan" is being monitored by two US Navy destroyers and two ships towing hydroacoustic equipment. The frigate, tug and tanker are being watched by another American destroyer and a US Coast Guard cutter.
