Moscow warns US about flying intelligence around Russian border
The warning came from Moscow after complaining to Washington that the Russian Navy had flew half a meter of a US Navy detective aircraft in the Black Sea sky.
Russian news agency Sputnik said, according to a statement by the Russian Defense Ministry, the country's air force will protect its airspace at any cost.
The statement further said that if Russian pilots have problems due to this Russian move, we have two proposals for them. They will have to live far beyond the Russian airspace. Or to reach an agreement on avoiding conflicts in the sky, sit on the negotiating table with Moscow.
Last week the US Navy complained that a Russian fighter in the Black Sea skyline followed their intelligence plan for more than two hours.
On the other hand, the Russian Air Force said they prevented the infiltration of US intelligence from Russian airspace. Only after the US spy plane left the Russian border, their warplanes came back to their base.
