Zitat:Report: France to Keep Russian Mistrals In Planned $1.20 Billion Deal
France is set to pay Russia $1.20 billion to settle the lingering dispute over two amphibious warships in a deal that went sour over the ongoing conflict in the Ukraine, according to French and Russian media reports.....
....As for new buyers of the Mistrals, there are a few obvious candidates. NATO has expressed some interest in purchasing the ships to ferry its emerging rapid reaction force. The ships could also revive the Canadian Navy’s joint support ship concept that would create multi-purpose fleet oilers.
