Russia will reduce the number of airfields for the United States

From January 1 2018, the number of airfields in Russia that Americans are allowed to use under an open sky contract will be reduced, reports RIA News message from a diplomatic source.

It is about bringing the list of airfields in line with the contract. Such a step is a mirror one in response to the measures declared by the USA with regard to Russia, which are also planned to be introduced in January,

said the agency interlocutor.

He explained that we are talking about Washington’s intention “to close the airspace over Alaska, Hawaii for Russian observers, and also to limit the range of flights”.

As the Wall Street Journal earlier noted, the preparation of restrictions on flights over the United States was a response from the authorities to tightening flight rules over Kaliningrad. The publication reminds that within the framework of the agreement, the range of the reconnaissance flight can be up to 5,5 thousands of kilometers, while over Kaliningrad Russia has imposed a limit of up to 500 kilometers.

The Kremlin called on Washington to make any claims under the treaty in strict accordance with the document.

The Open Skies Treaty was signed in Helsinki on March 24 1992 by representatives of the OSCE OSCE 23. Russia ratified the treaty in May 2001. The parties to the treaty may fly over each other’s territories in order to control military activities.

Not! They will immediately say that this is not democratic!
We just need to conduct joint exercises with Cuba and Venezuela.

It seems to be preparing for the events in Korea.

Restrictions are imposed for the United States, and the United States has already scheduled flights together with Denmark and the United States with England. What to do with NATO member countries? Will fly as before? How can an aggressor be allowed to do reconnaissance on its territory? To withdraw from the contract in general, it is not needed.
Limitations only the United States - this is not even a mirror answer.

[Hagalaz]

Here it is! It would be wiser to implement such an agreement within the framework of Russia-NATO. One hell most of the euro. Countries members. So let them receive information from their single center.

[Hoc vince]

“... to implement within the framework of Russia-NATO”
Do they at least observe something? First, they will quietly prepare the missiles until they are ready and “withdraw” from the treaty: on medium and short-range missiles, and then they will also exit through the open sky.

[Hagalaz]

Well, here it is. It is easier for them to get out of an interstate agreement. Information will still be received through third countries. If one of the NATO countries does not fulfill the agreement, then it is possible to block oxygen for the entire alliance.
This is the policy of openness of the 90s to us.

[Hoc vince]

“This is an open-minded 90s open policy.”
Your truth.

They need to inspect the territory of Russia, as well as to us in the USA

Will cost. These reciprocal scans give no useful exhaust. What is the use of these views if they, claiming Russian aggression against Urkaina, have so far been unable to provide evidence of the presence of countless "hordes and armads of Russian troops" in the dill territory? If they are not, then they are not. Yes, we were in Syria - the result is on the face, the bearded run around the desert like sheep in small flocks. If we went into the dill, then there would banderlog already dug caches in the Carpathian forests. And so, if they don’t see anything, then there’s nothing to smoke our sky with mattress kerosene.

You probably know better.

Let's immediately close ourselves from everyone, drive out all the ambassadors, close the borders, and observe each other at the border through binoculars.
At the same time, turn off the Internet, ban mobile communications, computers and everything else.

Do we get along too?

Probably get along. Today there are other means of exercising objective control. From the same satellite, relocation can be tracked normally. Well, if the war begins, so what? Will we pay politeness to each other and exchange observing flights? We will not.

And ... so, the improvement of optical intelligence is no longer needed?
It is strange that then, recently, the Americans made a fuss over the fact that our reconnaissance aircraft were equipped with new surveillance systems.

Russia will reduce the number of airfields for the United States under the "Open Skies"

It is high time....

[Hoc vince]

Given NATO, it turns out that the States we fly many times more.

[Login_Off]

I would also add to the point that aircraft should be light-engine with a radius of flight of not more than 500 km, and give airfields only on Novaya Zemlya.
And as a bonus, to say that they can take equipment unlimited in weight.
Let them fly at least.

[pvv113]

It seems to me alone that from this "open sky" we do more harm than good?

Volodya, hello! You're not alone. Send them to a well-known address, otherwise the borzometer rolls over at the "exceptional" ones.

For too long we went on their occasion with Humpback and Yeltsing, so they got used to and believed in their exceptionalism

And what’s the harm? Now, for how long I remember, under this agreement, a Russian plane was bartering right above the White House and dozens of Russian media were proudly writing about it! Don't fly anymore - the “damned Fashington” must have taken this circumstance into account.

[pvv113]

And what is the use? Moreover, no one hides the White House

[shura7782]

"Open sky" is a sound. empty. For those who like to cheat. Allegedly, we have a confidential dialogue.

Allow them to use only two airports - Verkhoyansk and Oymyakon, and only in January.

It is necessary to leave the contract. It is enough to form a common picture and satellites, but why provide detailed information to the enemy?

Interestingly, do Americanos often launch reconnaissance containers by rail from Nakhodka to Kaliningrad?

It is about bringing the list of airfields in accordance with the contract.

[kartalovkolya]

The time has come to respond to any US rudeness with adequate measures, especially since it was a long time ago to ban flights in our skies. And often to poke this "shy public" into their vital products, otherwise our Foreign Ministry behaves like an intellectual in a gang of thieves! With wolves live like a wolf howl!

[K-50]

over Kaliningrad, Russia imposed a limit of up to 500 kilometers.

Maybe because there is no over five and a half thousand over Kaliningrad. There probably are not five hundred.

[Dormidont]

I am embarrassed to ask: why will it only reduce, and not completely destroy?

Yes, you read IN - the only way you hear it - EXIT ALL TREATIES !!!! IMMEDIATELY!!!!

And why are you sitting here after that, and not in the government or not at all in the place of the President ??? You all know better than him where to go and with whom to conduct exercises.
Damn, one of the exercises with Venezuela was going to be carried out - but what, because it’s not for the money you need to send ships there. And the Venezuelans then asked if they want to conduct exercises with us or not ???? Another proposes to withdraw from the open skies agreement and doubts that this MIRROR RESPONSE. . Do not doubt MIRROR

Complied, unfortunately for you. Quietly prepare the missiles for withdrawal from the INF Treaty - of course, it's so simple. The President told them - to prepare - and they will prepare. And they need neither develop medium-range ballistic missiles nor conduct their tests. Everything is simple, as in the children's song about the house - "draw - we will live"

Damn, Russia what, so Stupidto voluntarily abandon an absolutely official way of conducting intelligence ??? And not from a satellite, but from an airplane ???

And the ban on inspections in their specific areas has led to the fact that certain areas of interest to us will also be closed.
REALLY IT IS SO DIFFICULT TO UNDERSTAND??? Or the main thing is to show your cheers-patriotism ??? From year to year, the level of comments on VO from a serious discussion of topics (problems) with a small dissemination agitation rolled down to almost continuous lulling slightly interspersed serious discussion

In addition to Kaliningrad, you need to close the sky over the Crimea. Let them scratch themselves.

Are you sure that in a larger quantity than was supposed under the contract? Give an example of how much you relied and how much they represented. And about the provision of airfields to a potential enemy. You forget only separately. They also presented their airdromes to us, their potential adversary, and nothing. No one in this high treason sought from them. And we are already trying to bring it to this - they provided airfields to the enemy

it is not necessary to introduce restrictions for the United States, but for NATO and NATO candidates. and then the meaning is 0.

"The publication recalls that within the framework of the agreement, the reconnaissance flight range can be up to 5,5 thousand kilometers, while Russia imposed a limit of 500 kilometers over Kaliningrad."
How were they going to fly over Kaliningrad 5 thousand kilometers ?! Either laugh or cry

Do you know, for example, how many inspection flights over Russian territory has the right to conduct, well, for example, Ukraine (although it is not in NATO)? Or such Youngonatsevs as Hungary, Romania, the Czech Republic and Slovakia? Or Greece? You will be surprised - NOT ONE. Italy can spend 2 flights a year over the territory of Russia-Belarus. We are similar. With serious countries, approximate parity in quantity
