Russian foreign minister blames US for “ignoring” Black Sea airspace restrictions
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov accused the United States on Wednesday of "ignoring" the airspace restrictions that Russia imposed in the coastal regions of the Black Sea since the start of the war with Ukraine.
"They completely ignore the fact that after the start of a special military operation, our military declared the relevant areas of the Black Sea, adjacent in certain places, as areas with a limited status for the use of any aircraft," Lavrov said in an interview with Russian state TV Rossiya-1.
Lavrov also blamed the US for "constantly looking for provocations aimed at increasing tensions."
"Any incidents that provoke a clash between the two great nuclear powers always pose a great risk," he said
