Russian Federation Security Council Secretary Nikolai Patrushev said Moscow would try to recover the wreckage of the US MQ-9 Reaper drone that fell into the Black Sea. This is necessary to study it, he said on the air of the Russia-1 television channel.
I don’t know if we will be able to get it or not, but the fact that we have to do it… And we certainly will
Patrushev explained.
According to him, he hopes for the success of the operation. The situation that has developed around this drone indicates that Washington participates in hostilities against Russia, although it constantly says the opposite, added the Secretary of the Security Council of the Russian Federation.
This is another confirmation that they are directly involved in these events.
- said Patrushev.
At the same time, the director of the foreign intelligence service of the Russian Federation, Sergei Naryshkin, on the air of the Russia-1 television channel, said that Moscow has the technical capabilities to recover the wreckage of the MQ-9 Reaper.
It seems to me that there are such technical possibilities
- he said.
Earlier, South Carolina Republican Senator Lindsey Graham on Fox News said it was fair to shoot down Russian planes if they come close to an American plane. The fact that the US-owned drone was carrying out reconnaissance in the interest of Ukraine does not bother the senator.
