US President Donald Trump announced the start of construction of the largest new shipyard for the US Navy since World War II. RIA Novosti and Vedomosti reported that the facility is to be built in Baltimore, while TASS said the complex will be built in the state of Maryland. TASS framed the project as the largest shipyard of its kind in the United States since the Second World War. [ 2 , 3 , 4 ]
Vedomosti reported that Trump’s remarks were broadcast on the White House YouTube channel. In the remarks quoted by Vedomosti, Trump said: “Мы официально запускаем строительство самой большой новой верфи в США со времен Второй мировой войны,” and added that “ничего подобного никогда не было.” According to Vedomosti, Trump also said the United States had once been able to build up to four ships a day, whereas in recent years building a single vessel took from seven to 17 years. [ 4 ]
Earlier the same day, RIA Novosti reported, citing media, that Trump wanted to invest in a new shipyard for US Navy submarines. The documents do not state whether that reported submarine shipyard is the same project as the Baltimore facility announced later. [ 1 ]
Por qué importa
The announcement concerns US naval shipbuilding capacity, a subject Russian state outlets covered promptly, and Trump’s remarks tie it to long-standing concerns about how long it takes the United States to build a single vessel. The documents give no cost, schedule or capacity figures, so the scale of the project cannot be assessed from them.
