Summary[edit]

Description
English: Russian Submarine Manuevers (September 1997.) Russian sub made her way from Petropavlovsk (Russia) to Seattle (USA.) Translated Russian text: "According to the U.S. Department of Defense, in September 1997, a Russian submarine with guided missiles for nearly two weeks was located about 100 miles off the coast of Washington. For several days she was undetected, remaining unidentified, dodging American patrol ships and aircraft. According to (the Soviet press agency) ITAR-TASS, US Secretary of Defense William Cohen said that the Russian nuclear submarine, which was located in the North Pacific at the end of September, did not pose any threat to American aircraft carrier formations. When asked whether the minister intends to discuss this topic in contacts with Russian officials, Cohen replied that he did not intend to. “They were in international waters,” he noted, “and since they did not pose any threat to our ships, I need not raise this issue.” The representative of the US State Department said that no protests against the actions of the Russian submarine were sent to Moscow."
Русский: По данным Министерства обороны США, в сентябре 1997 года, российская подводная лодка с управляемыми ракетами на протяжении почти двух недель находилась примерно в 100 милях от побережья штата Вашингтон. В течение нескольких дней она барражировала, оставаясь неопознанной, уклоняясь от американских сторожевых судов и самолётов. По сообщению ИТАР-ТАСС, Министр обороны США Уильям Коэн заявил, что российская атомная подлодка, находившаяся в конце сентября в северной части Тихого океана, не представляла никакой угрозы для американских авианосных соединений. На вопрос о том, намерен ли министр обсуждать эту тему при контактах с российскими официальными лицами, Коэн ответил, что не намерен.
— Они находились в международных водах, – отметил он, – и, поскольку они не представляли никакой угрозы для наших кораблей, мне нет нужды поднимать этот вопрос.
Представитель Государственного департамента США заявил, что никаких протестов против действий российской подводной лодки в Москву не направлялось.
