Kirby: US has no intention of complying with Russian Black Sea restrictions Fox News

According to him, Washington considers the air restrictions illegal and intends to continue to fly over this territory. RIA News.

Earlier, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said that the United States had not taken into account that Russia, at the start of the special operation, had warned against restricting flights in the Black Sea coastal areas. According to Lavrov, the provocative ignorance of this fact suggests that the United States is constantly trying to seek some kind of provocation to escalate its confrontational approaches.

Meanwhile, CNN reported that the United States is reassessing its drone operations in the region following the loss of a drone in the Black Sea. According to sources, the US Department of Defense wants to assess the costs and benefits of such missions, weighing “the potential intelligence value of this route against the risk of escalating tensions with the Russian Federation”.
