OTTAWA, Canada -Canada's defense minister on Monday slammed Chinese fighter jets'"dangerous and reckless" intercept of a Canadian maritime patrol aircraft while it was helping to enforce United Nations sanctions against North Korea.
Speaking to reporters in Ottawa, Defense Minister Bill Blair called the Chinese air force's actions"unprofessional." The Aurora aircraft and its 13-member crew have been tasked with supporting a multinational effort to implement UN Security Council sanctions against North Korea in response to its nuclear weapons tests and ballistic missile launches.
Beijing called the accusations"groundless," and responded by sending home a Canadian diplomat from the country's consulate in Shanghai.
