US withdraws from Open Skies Treaty

The United States withdraws from the Open Skies Treaty (DON). The reason for this decision in Washington called the actions of Russia, write the American media.

US President Donald Trump confirmed earlier information about the US withdrawing from the Open Skies Treaty. According to him, the reason for this was Russia, which "did a lot of bad things." At the same time, the American leader, as always, did not explain his words.



At the same time, the head of the US State Department, Mike Pompeo, expressed US claims to Russia under this agreement. As it turned out, the main claim put forward by Washington is that Russia allegedly uses the information received under the treaty to direct conventional weapons to the infrastructure of the United States and European NATO members, thereby undermining the central function of the Don and creating a "threat to US national security."

Russia uses the images taken under the Open Skies Treaty in the interests of the aggressive new Russian doctrine of striking critical infrastructure in the United States and Europe using high-precision conventional ammunition

- he said.

Among other claims that allegedly violate the provisions of the agreement, Pompeo voiced: refusal of observation flights in a 10-kilometer corridor along the border with Abkhazia and South Ossetia; establishing refueling as an airport under an aerodrome in the Crimea; "unlawful restriction on the range over Kaliningrad."

In addition, Pompeo emphasized that Russia in 2019 "unreasonably refused to conduct an observation flight over large-scale Russian military exercises."

In turn, Russia is not going to withdraw from the treaty, and the EU intends to convene an urgent meeting to discuss the consequences of such a US decision. At the same time, Washington promises to reconsider its decision if "Russia corrects its behavior."

It should be noted that DON allows the United States, Russia, and another 32 countries of the world to conduct reconnaissance flights over each other’s territories and is one of the most important components of the security system in Europe and the modern world as a whole.

      All these old contracts are worthless. A powerful USSR was negotiated, and now the partners do not consider it necessary to comply.

            "Russia is using the images from the Open Skies Treaty in the interests of Russia's aggressive new doctrine of striking critical infrastructure in the United States and Europe with precision conventional ammunition," he said.

            Everything is fine in the statement. Pompeo acknowledged that the military infrastructure in the US and Europe has flaws that the Russians do not need to know about. He also admitted that the Abrams "burn kerosene" over Russia in vain - nothing is visible. And experts and analysts in the United States have become dull to the point that they can be fed such a mess about pictures. Interestingly, ours have already answered or continue to troll refueling in the Crimea?

                The question is not who needs it (very many people need it to reduce tension)
                The question is who does NOT need it.
                If the United States abandons it, it is not just that. There must be a reason.
                They are hiding something. Getting ready. And, it seems, went to the finish line.

          It would not have happened that the United States left, and Russia remained, "yielding" to the entreaties of the American vassals who remained in the agreement, who would merge any information to the overlord.
          Well, that’s how it was with Iran. The US came out, and the whole crowd began to persuade Iran to remain "within" ... and even tried to threaten, so that Iran remained to fulfill the destroyed agreements, having previously curtailed its investments in Iran (just in case).

          Everyone needs a contract.

          We did not need an open skies agreement either when it was concluded, and even more so now. Our top military leaders opposed him, but the drunk loved the West and the USA so much that he agreed to the Treaty, which was extremely unprofitable for us, which is why he appeared in 1992 - the Americans insisted on his conclusion.
          At that time, the US military doctrine was aimed at creating a huge number of sea and air-based cruise missiles, which made it possible to covertly launch a massive preemptive strike against our military missile defense and strategic missile forces. And after that, ballistic missiles and other strategic nuclear forces were to strike. And they needed detailed data on our terrain and radar operations, and getting them from a satellite constellation would cost a lot of money. That's why they imposed this agreement and almost for a penny got the information that would cost them tens of billions of dollars without the agreement.
          For us, such information about the territory of the United States was not needed at all, because we planned to use the strategic nuclear forces, and for them such information was not needed. And we had no cruise missiles at that time, so that they could massively attack targets in the United States.
          So the current breakdown of this Treaty will not bring us any particular harm, unlike those concluded on strategic offensive arms, which is why we should not worry too much about it. I am sure that the US military themselves will request the conclusion of such an agreement from Trump - they then well know what he gives them.

        At the time of the signing of the treaty, the states had tangible superiority in intelligence systems. Now the situation is rather the opposite. After the loss of superiority for the "gentleman", it is a holy thing to take the words back.
        Does FIG need a dividend-free agreement?

        And we need science - to live with wolves howl like a wolf.

            The costs of satellite reconnaissance are much higher, and the quality of the reconnaissance materials received from the reconnaissance aircraft is not only higher in resolution, but the information is even more comprehensive and comprehensive. There are no such satellites of intelligence among the Americans, which would be able to accommodate as much various equipment as it fits in a reconnaissance aircraft.

        An agreement is a product of non-resistance of parties with opposing interests.
        One of the parties considered that it would provide only its interests (at the expense of the other side). This means that the other party is more non-negotiable (it cannot ensure its interests through an agreement). Thus, (this) the other side will either have to secure its interests with force or retreat due to force majeure circumstances (what do you think?).

          This agreement was adopted in order to remove many security issues. And now an interesting situation arises if Russia remains faithful to the previously signed treaty and allows any of the European countries both NATO members and their partners to fly over its territory. This information will directly go to the headquarters of NATO and the USA, and we will be deprived of the opportunity to conduct such flights and collect intelligence over the USA

            We and the United States have enough satellites, it's just more expensive and the quality is worse. The United States has set itself the goal of drawing us into an expensive race, nothing new.

                  Why are you suspected? They specifically learned. Ours, for certification, showed them our new Tu-214ON.

      "Russia is not going to withdraw from the treaty" If the United States withdraws from this treaty, what is the point for us to remain in it? If everything is scout. they will be able to receive data from their NATO partners, who will be able to fly over our territory.

      Everyone needs a contract.

      We did not need an open skies agreement either when it was concluded, and even more so now. Our top military leaders opposed him, but the drunk loved the West and the USA so much that he agreed to the Treaty, which was extremely unprofitable for us, which is why he appeared in 1992 - the Americans insisted on his conclusion.
      At that time, the US military doctrine was aimed at creating a huge number of sea and air-based cruise missiles, which made it possible to covertly launch a massive preemptive strike against our military missile defense and strategic missile forces. And after that, ballistic missiles and other strategic nuclear forces were to strike. And they needed detailed data on our terrain and radar operations, and getting them from a satellite constellation would cost a lot of money. That's why they imposed this agreement and almost for a penny got the information that would cost them tens of billions of dollars without the agreement.
      For us, such information about the territory of the United States was not needed at all, because we planned to use the strategic nuclear forces, and for them such information was not needed. And we had no cruise missiles at that time, so that they could massively attack targets in the United States.
      So the current breakdown of this Treaty will not bring us any particular harm, unlike those concluded on strategic offensive arms, which is why we should not worry too much about it. I am sure that the US military themselves will request the conclusion of such an agreement from Trump - they then well know what he gives them.

      I agree, only why the Kremlin is so tense on this topic, as if one of the spouses who were abandoned, but he still promises to love his former half to the grave? lol hi

        Everything is probably simpler - it is beneficial for us that Europeans write in their pants from the actions of Trump, which is why we are fanning this story so that they bite with each other more. Europeans are well aware that the Americans have at least some chance of surviving after an exchange of nuclear strikes, and they have none at all. It is they who are affected in the first place - maybe the EU will fall apart faster.

      A purely personal opinion. The 1992 agreement took us away from creating reconnaissance satellites. Why invest when you can just control it from an airplane. Departure of an airplane from a given aerodrome. And the time is surely agreed. And the satellite controls for a long time. What they weave, Chapaev said that they didn’t give a damn and forget. It just so happened that besides the USA their satellites are developing. And you need to look at them. We are primarily interested in France, Great Britain and a little Japan. China, of course.

      The worst thing is that Russia will abide by this treaty. Consequently, NATO aircraft, for example, some Danes and various other Swedes, will spy openly over our heads, transmitting all the information to the Americans. And our military in relation to American territory will be deprived of such an opportunity. It’s not Belarusian planes that send the United States to the sky ...
      In my opinion, all these agreements of the 1990s with the Americans should be reviewed. And for the time of "revision" their action must be suspended. And the initiative in this should come from our side, and not from the side of these mad cowboys, who, no matter the ranch, have their own law and order.
