В Эгейском море столкнулись греческий военный корабль с турецким грузовым судном

Власти Греции сообщили о столкновении турецкого грузового корабля с греческим военным кораблем в восточном секторе Эгейского моря. Все обошлось без жертв или серьезных повреждений, сообщает Hurriyet Daily News из Стамбула со ссылкой на Associated Press.

В заявлении греческого военно-морского флота говорится, что корабль под турецким флагом набрал скорость и ушел в турецкие воды после произошедшего инцидента на рассвете 4 мая, проигнорировав радио-сообщения с корабля «Арматолос».

Согласно греческой стороне, столкновение в греческих водах к юго-востоку от острова Лесбос было вызвано тем, что турецкий корабль нарушил правила безопасности международных перевозок.

Инцидент произошел на фоне усиления напряженности между Грецией и Турцией по поводу территориальных прав в Эгейском море.

The United States and Ukraine have signed a minerals deal after a two-month delay, in what President Donald Trump's administration called a new form of US commitment to Kyiv after the end of military aid. Ukraine said it secured key interests after protracted negotiations, including full sovereignty over its own rare earths, which are vital for new technologies and largely untapped. Trump had initially demanded rights to Ukraine's mineral wealth as compensation for US weapons sent under former president Joe Biden after Russia invaded just over three years ago.
