The Russian Federation threatened to knock down the French plane over the Black Sea - the French Defense Ministry

According to Sebastian Lecorton, the aircraft was in the international zone, so it did not violate the airspace of the Russian Federation. France declared threats from Russian representatives to knock down NATO aircraft over the Black Sea during the patrolling of the Alliance's eastern flank. This statement was made by the head of the French Ministry of Defense Sebastian Lecorton. About it reports RTL.

The defense department said that the aircraft was in the international zone, so it did not violate the airspace of the Russian Federation. He also recalled the case that occurred several months ago in the Seine Bay near the border of French territorial waters, where the Russian ship threw anchor. According to Lecorny, it may have been done to intimidate France.

He also said that, obviously, European security requires the victory of Ukraine, otherwise the European Security Architecture will be different. "The behavior of Russia in 2024 is no longer the one that we survived in 2022. This can be explained by the fact that Russia is in a difficult situation on the battlefield," he said. Recall that the observer Oleksandr Kovalenko told how many more Russian aircraft needed to eliminate the threat of cabin.
