7. Why should we believe Russia?

No, not about the sinking, about how many Russian seamen were actually rescued. I don't for a minute believe that were not casualties.

Doubtful to me that 510 seamen survived, hit by a missile causing munitions to explode and caused the ship to sink.

Russia only has 3, er now 2 of these types of warships.

To counter the humiliation of the flag ship being sunk I see that Russia is countering by threatening to use nuclear weapons again. Russia and the GQP have to control the narrative.
