ships make port calls in foriegn countries for one purpose, to wave thier flag. Kindof a "Hi, how are you doing?" between nations.
And as for getting off subject, I think that was a result of discussing the original purpose of the Moskva's design. While we could discuss it's
capability to fully achieve that mission, and thepolitical implications of it forever, I'm pretty sure the vessel has enough firepower to destroy
many nation's entire navies, almost singlehanded. (The US is not one of these nations, we've got more ships than that ship has missiles) 16
missiles=16 surface ships destroyed. 2 missiles per AAW ship and one for everything else=8-16 ships destroyed.
