Russia to purchase two warships from France, NATO allies uneasy about sale
Russia is to purchase two Warships from French companies, with the possibility of two additional vessels, in a move that has sparked fears among France's NATO allies. The sale has worried NATO members because of the sophistication of the technology aboard the vessels, who fear arming officials in Moscow with advanced weaponry could be disastrous.
The sale had been agreed in July, but stalled in August after France reconsidered what technology they were prepared to share with Russia. Vladamir Putin, the Prime Minister of Russia, had said they planned to use the technology to build their own warships in the future. The office of President of France, Nicolas Sarkozy, said there was potential for two additional ships to be sold to Moscow.
The United States is thought to be uneasy about the sale, along with some of Russia's surrounding states. Mistral class amphibious assault ships, the class of ship being purchased by Russia, contains a 69-bed hospital and can carry sixteen helicopters and a landing force of up to 750 people and four craft.
In wartime, the distinction between warships armed merchantman|auxiliary warships, such as the Q-ships of the First World War and the armed merchant cruisers of the Second World Warentury or the Japanese Navy during the Second World War.

Warship
A warship is a ship that is built and primarily intended for combat. Warships are usually built in a completely different way than merchant ships. As well as being armed, warships are designed to withstand damage and are usually faster and more maneuverable than merchant ships. Unlike a merchant ship, a warship typically only carries weapons, ammunition and supplies for its own crew (rather than merchant cargo). Warships usually belong to a navy, though they have sometimes been operated by individuals or companies.In wartime, the distinction between warships armed merchantman|auxiliary warships, such as the Q-ships of the First World War and the armed merchant cruisers of the Second World Warentury or the Japanese Navy during the Second World War.
