Russian President Vladimir Putin has approved a new naval strategy aimed at fully restoring Russia’s position as a leading global maritime power, Kremlin aide Nikolai Patrushev said in an interview with the Russian state-controlled Argumenty i Fakty newspaper.<\/p>\n

Patrushev, a former KGB officer, told<\/a> the Russian newspaper that the new document, titled The Strategy for the Development of the Russian Navy up to 2050, was approved in late May.<\/p>\n

“Russia’s position as one of the world’s greatest maritime powers is gradually recovering,” Patrushev said. He added that such work requires a long-term vision of future maritime challenges and threats.<\/p>\n

Patrushev provided no further details on the new naval strategy<\/p>\n

Russia currently operates the world’s third most powerful navy, according to most public rankings, behind China<\/a> and the United States<\/a>. However, the fleet has suffered a string of losses during the war against Ukraine, particularly in the Black Sea<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Since September 2022, Ukraine<\/a> has used naval kamikaze drones to target the Russian Black Sea Fleet, destroying several vessels. The latest strike sank a Mangust-class patrol boat off the coast of occupied Crimea using a domestically produced Magura drone<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Ukraine’s campaign has drawn on the Jeune \u00c9cole<\/a> naval doctrine, leveraging small, low-cost drones against larger warships. After losing its conventional surface fleet early in the war, Ukraine turned to developing its own naval drones.<\/p>\n

The approach has proven effective. <\/p>\n

In April 2022, Ukraine sank the Moskva<\/a>, the fleet’s flagship, with Neptune missiles<\/a>. It has since struck key naval bases and reportedly disabled or destroyed around a third of Russia’s Black Sea Fleet<\/a>. The General Staff said<\/a> in June that 29 Russian vessels had been taken out of action.<\/p>\n

In response, Russia<\/a> began pulling back<\/a> ships from occupied Crimea<\/a> to the port of Novorossiysk in late 2024 to shield them from further attacks. The redeployment limited Moscow’s ability to blockade Ukrainian grain exports<\/a>, though Russian naval capabilities in other regions remain largely intact.<\/p>\n

As Ukraine, Russia agree to ceasefire at sea, Moscow\u2019s battered Black Sea Fleet is set to get a reprieve<\/div>\n
The White House on March 25 announced that Ukraine and Russia had agreed to \u201celiminate the use of force\u201d in the Black Sea, returning the spotlight to a theater of battle that has been relatively quiet for more than a year. Throughout 2022 and 2023, Ukrainian strikes against Russian ships,<\/div>\n
