About the fact that in the event of termination of the contract, the capital of Russia and Paris, France Can go on the flooding of the giant helicopter, on Wednesday wrote to the French, who named such a fate shocking military courts. print publication believes it is unlikely the use of "Mistral" French Navy or other NATO countries, as their conversion will be too expensive. Because of this, and considered another option: to dismantle and dispose of. 1st "Mistral" France had to give Russia at the end of last year, But due to the Ukrainian conflict the transfer was postponed. The Russian Federation informs that expressed a willingness to accept either the ships or the money for them. Flood the helicopter "is fraught with serious environmental risks, dangerous for navigation and in the end would cripple shipbuilding to the prestige of France and its relations with Russia," - said Vice-President of the Center for strategic communications Dmitry Abzalov in explanations. He believes that such statements are reminiscent of the attempt of France to strengthen its position in the negotiations for the sale of "Mistral" to third parties. Deputy Director of the Center for political technologies Alexei Makarkin also believes that it most likely is a pre-planned information disclosure. "currently ships are on the balance of France, and their maintenance costs a pretty penny. For this reason, more and more often hear - If you sell to no one, not necessary, and contain expensive, easier to drown, and that's that. But there is a powerful military-industrial lobby and trying to prevent that option. In the course are populist arguments About the prestige of the nation, about the fact that the people and builders of ships-the giants will not understand such a move. Rising public discussion, thereby surubaya in the Bud the possibility of any such attempts, " said Makarkin. If the contract with Moscow will still be terminated, then the least unprofitable for the French option is to sell the Mistrals to another buyer. Among the main buyers called Canada, Egypt and " a Northern European country ". According to Makarkin, it was mentioned About Brazil. However, it is currently experiencing an economic crisis, so people just do not understand such expenses. Abzalov believes that today ship of this class hardly anyone needs. "Large-scale military operations with the use of the coastal troops in the foreseeable future is not expected that the maintenance of such a vehicle is expensive, Russian stuffing should be returned home," He says. Can France still give the "Mistral" of Russia? Makarkin believes that the " political component ", which prevents it to do too much. For its part, Abzalov believes that such transfer May take place in the 2nd part of the current year.
