The Barents Observer: Navy pilots take off to new Arctic bases
The upgrade of Russia’s far northern airfields is almost competed and the naval air force has got enhanced capability to neutralize threats. That includes the ones located under the ice.
The comprehensive construction and upgrade of new airfields in the high Arctic has been practically completed and we are flying there and back, says Mayor General Igor Kozhin, leader of the Russian Naval Air Force.
Russia has over the last years invested heavily in military bases all over its wide-stretched Arctic, and there are now potent forces deployed all the way from the westernmost archipelago of Franz Josef Land to the Wrangle Island near the Bering Strait. In addition comes the bases on Novaya Zemlya, Severnaya Zemlya and the New Siberian Island. New bases and air fields are also located on the Arctic mainland, from the Kola Peninsula to Cape Shmidt in the Chukotka Peninsula. The new base in Tiksi, was started in fall 2018 and is planned completed already in the course of the first half year of 2019.

Old CNN website was source of unvetted 'random' info used by author of anti-Trump dossier, docs reveal
"I got my report off the internet" - Michael Steele
"Steele and his company, Orbis Business Intelligence, were hired by Glenn Simpson's U.S. based company, Fusion GPS, to work on the dossier and promote its contents to journalists. Fusion GPS received $1.8 million via the law firm Perkins Coie, with the money paid by the Democratic National Committee and the Hillary Clinton campaign."
"The report by Steele was also shared with State Department official Victoria Nuland"
Jay just thinks the world of Vicroeia Nuland. She is the greatest thin since the invention of sliced bread or fire.
"The dossier authored by Steele alleged that Gubarev's companies “used botnets and porn traffic to transmit viruses, plant bugs, steal data and conduct 'alerting operations' against the Democratic Party leadership”
So parrots have a high viral load?
"Former British spy Christopher Steele confessed that he used an unverified report submitted to a CNN website, where “random individuals” can post information, for his salacious anti-Trump dossier."
Anon; your clearly a troll. Please stop.
All excerpts from a news article.
All in response to a serial poster.
All except the parrot comment, but that would be an educated and well reasoned guess.
