USA have sent the third aircraft carrier to the Near East
The United States of America have directed the third aircraft carrier to region of the Near East. As Naval Forces of the USA have declared, the given decision was accepted with purpose to raise battle readiness of the American armies in this region on a background of growth of intensity in attitudes with Iran, and also for carrying out of some operations in Iraq.
Naval Forces of the USA have informed that nuclear aircraft carrier Enterprise has left Norfolk (Virginia). As it has become known there is 5,5 thousand seamen and sea infantrymen on the sea vessel .
Under the application of command, the aircraft carrier is called to resist offensive, undermining stability and to growing aggressive behavior of some states in region, and also will support the American armies, deployed in Iraq and Afghanistan. So, vice-admiral of Naval Forces of USA, the commander of 5-th sea flotilla of the USA has characterized Enterprise’s mission.
It is also known that there are 70 planes and 4 helicopters onboard of aircraft carrier. These air-warships will be used with the purpose of “stabilization” of a situation and maintenance of “safe trading stream”.
Occurrence is equitable in region of one more aircraft carrier to interests of the USA on escalating the armed presence in the Near East. We shall remind, that on May, 23rd, 9 American military ships, including two aircraft carriers, have entered into Persian Gulf. It was the most scale intervention of the American flotilla to Persian Gulf for all time from the beginning of war in Iraq in 2003.
Besides Washington has repeatedly declared about the opportunity of carrying out of military operation against Iran if other ways of the decision of a so-called Iranian nuclear problem will be settled. The USA continues to insist on military character of works, carried out by Islamic Republic on enrichment of uranium. In turn Teheran refuses to curtail the given works in the contest of the program of peace atom.
