The United States is expressing its “highest level of concern” after a Russian military jet came dangerously close to a U.S. plane in international airspace over the Black Sea Monday.
The encounter came during a Russian military exercise.
“While the U.S. aircraft was operating under international law, the Russian side was flagrantly violating existing agreements and international law,” State Department spokeswoman Heather Nauert said in a statement late Monday, “this is but the latest example of Russian military activities disregarding international norms and agreements.”
According to U.S. Naval Forces Europe, a Russian SU-27 came within one and a half meters of crossing directly in front of the flight path of an American EP-3.
There has been no response so far from Russia.
The State Department calls on Russia to stop what it calls unsafe actions that increase the risk of miscalculation and midair collisions.
美国在一架俄罗斯喷气式军机星期一在黑海上空国际空域危险地近距离靠近一架美国飞机之后表示“极为关注”。
事件发生时俄罗斯正在举行一场军事演习。
美国国务院发言人诺尔特星期一晚上在一份声明中说:“美国飞机进行符合国际法的飞行,而俄罗斯方面公然违反现行协议和国际法。这是俄罗斯军事行动无视国际准则和协议的最新例证。”
美国驻欧洲海军说,一架俄罗斯苏-27飞机从一架美国EP-3飞机前方1.5米的地方飞过。
俄罗斯尚未对这个事件发表任何评论。
美国国务院呼吁俄罗斯停止它所称的不安全、增加误判和空中撞机风险的行为。
