Defense Minister Lloyd Austin says at a news conference that the US intended to continue flying where international law allowed and demanded Russian military aircraft operate in a safe and professional manner.
Washington’s top general said the crash of a US surveillance drone after being intercepted by Russian jets showed Moscow’s increasingly aggressive behavior while Russia warned Washington that flying drones near Crimea risked escalation.
Russia, the statement said, “had no interest in such a development but will in future react in due proportion”. Crimea is a peninsula that was part of Ukraine until Moscow annexed it by force in 2014. The statement from Russia’s defense ministry said the two countries should “act with a maximum of responsibility” including by having military lines of communication in a crisis.
“There is a pattern of behaviour recently where there is a little bit more aggressive actions being conducted by the Russians,” Milley told reporters, saying it was unclear whether the Russian pilots intended to strike the drone. Russia said the episode showed the US was directly participating in the Ukraine war, something the West has taken pains to avoid.
