An overly ambitious goal from Russians whose fleet has come in a distant second to Ukraine -- and Kyiv doesn't even have an official Navy.
Meanwhile in Russia: state TV host Vladimir Solovyov was outraged that Trump postponed a meeting with Putin, asserting that Russia never wanted to meet with Americans anyway. Solovyov suggested Russia should sink the USS Gerald R. Ford aircraft carrier.

As a response to new sanctions, Solovyov is dreaming of nuclear strikes and supplying Venezuela, Iran and North Korea with "all the necessary types of weapons". Sure they have enough of those weapons to give them away... But well, sanctions don't work and don't bother russia at all...
Meanwhile in Russia: Vladimir Solovyov was apoplectic about the new US sanctions, proclaimed that the bromance between Trump and Putin is over and downgraded the US president to the status of a "pindos"—a derogatory slur Russians use to describe Americans.
