In the last weeks of 2013 we are seeing a slightly increased traffic of Russian warships through Turkish Straits.

    I assume that the PM-138 was the vessel based in Tartus, Syria. In the past the Russians have rotated a repair vessel into Tartus when one left–I wonder if that means that there is no Russian naval presence in Tartus right now and what are the Russians signaling by doing this..
