According to data from the sources of the Ukrainian portal "Strana.ua", the US warship visited the area only so that Ukrainian President Piotr Poroshenko could talk about "US support at sea".On February 28, the destroyer left the Black Sea, and on the way met a Russian destroyer. It was reported that both ships were heading towards the Mediterranean.
This is the second visit of the US destroyer to the Black Sea this year. In January, the ship spent five days in the port of Batumi and off the coast of Georgia.
