Defense Minister's Advisor: Ukraine plans to establish control over maximum area of Black Sea by 2027
One of Ukraine's goals for 2026–2027 is to control the maximum area of the Black Sea, stated adviser to the Ukrainian Minister of Defense, Serhiy Beskrestnov (call sign Flash).
"One of the goals we've set for ourselves for 2026-2027 is to control as much of the Black Sea as possible. Just five years ago, this would have been laughable: a country without a large navy laying claim to anything," he wrote on Telegram on Wednesday night.
According to him, times have changed. The era of unmanned surface and submarine vessels, and various types of unmanned aerial drones, has arrived. Added to this are modern electronic warfare and radar technologies.
"Our country will surprise many in this regard. And our enemy will be afraid to take a single ship out to sea from its ports. You'll see," promised the Defense Minister's advisor.
