The Pentagon again expressed concern about the "dangerous behavior" of Russia
According to Cook, “in recent years, Russia's behavior has caused concern to us and our NATO allies, and this problem will be discussed at the Alliance Summit”, which will be held in Warsaw on July 8-9.
Washington is disturbed by "Russia's actions towards Ukraine, as well as the dangerous and unprofessional behavior of Russian aircraft and ships in international airspace and international waters," TASS Cook words.
“We clearly spoke about this to Russia. We believe that such actions do not contribute to strengthening security in the region, ”he said, reminding journalists that“ US Secretary of Defense Ashton Carter included Russia among the five main challenges to American interests, ”along with North Korea, China, Iran and ISIS.
