Sevastopol - Interfax-Ukraine - Kyiv Post
Formal remarks during Ukrainian Armed Forces Day marked December 6, 2010:
In 2011 we will have more constructive aspects linked to inter-specific groups. I think that my colleague and I will again discuss what has to done. These will be worthy drills aimed at the protection of our native Ukraine and Russia here in Crimea,- Vice Admiral Vladimir Korolev, Commander of the Russian Black Sea Fleet
Thanking his colleague for training assistance provided to Ukrainian sailors on the Russian Black Fleet's submarine Alrosa [color emphasis mine]:
We are working together. They have provided significant assistance to us in training our submariners. I think that our submarine will soon also put to sea,- Ukrainian Navy Commander, Admiral Viktor Maksymov

The Alrosa has often attracted unwanted attention as something of a mystery sub: The Federation's Sub Alrosa's First Mutiny ...
