"It has the ability to be and respect the Donetsk and Lugansk people's republics, and the strengthening of our groups operational-tactical missiles with wings. Also the RF becomes tougher to treat the Montreux Convention on the regime of the Turkish Straits", he said.

According to the Montreux Convention on the status of the Straits, warships of countries that do not have access to the Black sea, have the opportunity to be in his area is not more than 21 days, and imposed significant limits on the class and tonnage of the vessel.
