KIEV, Nov. 23 (Xinhua) -- An U.S. Navy Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyer has started a journey to the Black Sea for regular patrols as part of a NATO mission, Ukrinform news agency reported Monday.
"USS Donald Cook (DDG-75) began their straits transit into the Black Sea, marking the 7th time a U.S. Navy warship has been in the Black Sea Region," Ukrinform quoted the U.S. Navy's 6th Fleets' Twitter account as saying.
