The ex-Foch, twin of the Clemenceau, on her way to the scrapyard in Türkiye
The tug ALP Centre is towing the Brazilian aircraft carrier Sao Paulo, ex-Foch and sistership of the Clemenceau, on her last voyage. The convoy left Rio de Janeiro on August 4, crossed the Atlantic and is currently off the Western Sahara. It is heading to Aliaga, Türkiye, where it is expected to arrive around September 12. Brazil is sending a dirty gift to the Turkish working class community and to the Aegean Sea. The Sao Paulo is expected to be scrapped by the EU-approved Sök Denizcilik yard. Sök Denizcilik regularly receives navy vessels, particularly from the United Kingdom.
