Russian warships: Spain says refuelling request withdrawn

Russia has withdrawn a request for three warships to dock at the Spanish port of Ceuta for refuelling, following concern among Nato allies.
The Spanish foreign ministry says the stopovers have now been cancelled.
Spain had been coming under pressure from Nato allies not to allow the refuelling of Russian warships bound for Syria.
A battle group has been sailing for the past week from Russia to the Mediterranean.
"Given the information which appeared on the possibility that these ships would participate in supporting military action in the Syrian city of Aleppo, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs requested clarification from the embassy of the Russian Federation in Madrid," the foreign ministry said in a statement to the BBC.
It added that permission had been granted in September for three Russian ships to dock in Ceuta between 28 October and 2 November. It said such stops for Russian naval vessels had taken places for years in Spanish ports.
I actually voted yes...I had mixed feelings sphere of influence & who decides
for the record military might is USA more than everyone else - save nuclear weapons Russia has twice as many...and I am really going to say this I actually Agree with Trump (no pink letter small font wow) the focus should be on the removal/containment of ISIS
Who should police the world - the UK certainly doesn't have the capacity. Russia is a faded force desperate for sanction to be lifted they are out of money. only leaves America & its allies. The UN is a fuking useless - concept is good just does not work
Incidentally i view few films as masterpieces but in my mind this is one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HIPljGWGNt4
team America, like snowdens, strike as films Americans do not wish to see is that correct or not?
