A visit aboard the Russian Pacific Fleet flagship, the Varyag, on a visit to San Francisco. May these systems never be unsheathed, and may the crew reach home safely. Many thanks to Ed Holmes for additional photos.
Texas Patriot Hi dear! We don't want any war. We love our planet with peace, like Americans do. Trump is the president of the USA! He is very intelligent and adequate man. We hope for friendship with you now. We don't like that we have to create after each new US bomb our Tsar-bomb. No more the cold war, no more Obama's!:)
US and Russian policies clash for some stupid and idiotic reasons. US and Russian citizens like each other 90% of the time. I have met hundreds of Russians citizens and they are a friendly bunch. Я люблю русских людей (Google Translation)
why cant we just be friends no fighting and shit we dont need to kill each other for some piece of lands and we can just live togethere in these lands no racist going on just 1 nation of people same rules and live side by side
Don't wanna be detrimental to your comment but it's a beautiful dream you had. Armed conflicts profit to so many people, monetarily I mean, we will have to change the whole world economic mechanics if we wish to achieve world peace.
I wish we were still friends.. Or at least, on this level where they could visit us, we could visit them. I remember years ago when a Russian training tall ship ported in my old town of San Pedro, we saw Russian sailors around town. They were very courteous, and very Polite.
Tried to get a tour of Varyag but the lines were literally 1/2 mile long both days. 1st time a Russian warship had visited San Francisco since the Gold Rush. I hope she comes back to San Francisco again soon.
Dude Russia is the largest nation on earth, almost twice the size of america, in siberia and far eastern regions there are many asians, they are also russians. That's like me saying why are there africans in new york city, it's an ignorant comment.
it's believed that boys from the San Francisco gay district welcomed the Russians singing pet shop boys song : "go west " and cheering:" hello sailors "...
You do know Obama was President at the time when this ship showed up. You are a ignorant Trump hater that will blame everything on Trump even though he's wasn't president!
@@timetowatch2379 thats pure bullshit surly most of russian population lives in europe and is white but most of its land is in asia and there the peopel and also the russians there look like asians
@@christian9125abd in Russian language we have "ruskie" for russians by nationality and "rossiyani" for people who lives in Russia. "rossiyanin" can be tatar, uzbek of german, it doesnt matter. But "ruskiy" - nationality. "Ruskiy" cant be asian.
Yea, a battleship also pulled up in Notfolk a couple of years ago. They were conducting joint naval exercises with the US, U.K., France, and I think Germany(?).
ну ты не говори так , у меня подруга (башкирка -это тоже Россия)я русский .и ещё не поймешь кто в доме хозяин.а вы индейцев в резервацию загнали..думаю скоро Россия прекратит этот террор
There are many nationalities within the Russian Federation, not only Russian ethnic people. You have Yakuts, Buryats, Kalmuks, Chechens, Tatars, and many many others. Do not confound various nationalities of Russia and the Russian Federation citizenship they all share. And do not confound those with the citizens of Central Asian independent states, such as Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, and other former Soviet republics.
it was 13 years ago lmao, SF wasnt THAT bad at the time. If it was rn, russian ship will be probably attacked by a bunch of gays, blm, femenists, while some black dude just smashed a back window on the ship to break in and steal a bag on a back seat.
