The actions of the Russian strategic nuclear submarines of the Borey project in the Atlantic Ocean have caused fears in the Western media. The submarines were called "deadly", and the tasks they performed were "sinister".
The article is published by The Sun, previously the British edition of The Mirror spoke with a similar topic. The author writes about "dozens of Russian submarines of the Borey project, which are diving to a serious depth in the Norwegian Sea" near the coast of Great Britain. They also mention the "Zircon" missiles, which can be armed with submarines of the project 955 "Borey" - and this is despite the fact that the missile has not yet been put into service and is currently being tested.
Military expert Bruce Jones in an interview with the publication said that the actions of the Russian military have been causing alarm in the West for several months. He suggested that the submarines are simply "teasing" NATO countries to make them nervous. He called noteworthy the fact that Russian submariners focused on deep-sea operations, which may indicate an increase in the secrecy of actions.
Meanwhile, the information about "dozens of" Boreas" in the Norwegian Sea", which the British press cites, is absurd. Recall that at the moment, four strategic nuclear submarines of this project are serving in the Russian Navy, five more submarines are being built.
