Russian War Games Off Alaska Coast

The Russians have conducted a major naval drill just off the coast of Alaska.

From the Daily Mail:

The Russian navy conducted major war games near Alaska involving dozens of ships and aircraft, the military said Friday, the biggest such drills in the area since Soviet times.

Russia's navy chief, Adm. Nikolai Yevmenov, said that more than 50 warships and about 40 aircraft were taking part in the exercise in the Bering Sea, which involved multiple practice missile launches.

'We are holding such massive drills there for the first time ever,' Yevmenov said in a statement released by the Russian Defense Ministry.

As part of the exercises, the Russian nuclear submarine Omsk surfaced near Alaska on Thursday, U.S. military officials said.

If the Russians wanted Trump to be re-elected, wouldn't they have waited until after the American elections?  Strange behavior for a political benefactor, no?
