The US Aerospace Defense Command announced to the media that a third was being conducted violation of airspace of Alaska by a Russian military aircraft. The events occurred between August 8th and 10th. On Tuesday, CNN reported two more violations by Russian military aircraft in Adiz, the international airspace bordering Alaska that stretches more than 100 miles from United States territory.
At the moment, Russia has not responded to the American statements and is unlikely to do so in the next few hours. Tensions are constantly high due to the war in Ukraine, which has partially awakened dormant and unforgettable disagreements between the United States and Russia. Joe Biden is providing concrete weaponized assistance to Zelenskyy against Putin’s soldiers, and while American military action on the ground is not currently planned, the Stars and Stripes weapons are making a difference in the conflict Russia has unleashed. The reasons for the Russian jet’s overflow are not known, whether it was a mistake or one provocation. Numerous violations of airspace in Europe’s Baltic states have been reported since the war began, but no violations have been reported in the United States as of last Tuesday.
The two countries, on the other hand, have a common border line called Baker Shevardnadze linenamed for the US Secretary of State and Soviet Foreign Minister who signed the agreement in 1990. The Baker-Shevardnadze Line extends from point 65°30’N, 168°58’37″W and crosses the Bering Strait and the Chucki Sea in the Arctic Ocean, within the limits permitted by international law, and then extends from the same point south, according to the agreement signed by Eduard Shevardnadze and James Baker.
