I don't know what US is up to.
That was how Iran celebrated the downing of one US drone, before US responded by killing one of their major generals.

But Russia is made of different quality.
So let's see how it goes.
If US ever dares try such humiliating stuff they did to that Iranian General to any Russian official, no US commander in Europe is safe. They US knows that. Na ontop small pikin you fit dey flex muscle but when you jam equal rival wey fit hurt you back, you go maintain and thread carefully.

The black sea ⛵ is international space? Lmao. Go find out who owns black sea
the black sea boarders several countries.... So it can't be said to belong to any country.... therefore could be called international waters, as long as you are more than 12 nautical miles from any land boarder

I wonder how you reason....a jet collided in mid air

As in Na normal road .....


The drone was shot down

I don't know why you can't read and absorb simple statements. The Russian jet, which is much bigger and sturdier than a drone, tipped the wing of the drone, damaging it thereby.

it has nothing to do with being on a normal road or not. This was done DELIBERATELY.

🇺🇸🇷🇺The Russian ambassador will be summoned to the State Department after the incident with a drone over the Black Sea

He will be expressed a "strong rejection" of the situation by Washington, said the head of the press service of the American Foreign Ministry, Ned Price.

US State Department is summoning Russian Ambassador Anatoly Antonov in connection with the interception by a Russian fighter of an American unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) over the Black Sea. This was stated on Tuesday at a briefing by the head of the press service of the American Foreign Ministry, Ned Price.

"We are directly interacting with the Russian side at high levels to express our complete rejection of this unprofessional, unsafe interception that led to the downing of an American drone. We are summoning the Russian ambassador to the State Department, where we will send the appropriate signal. In Moscow, Ambassador Lynne Tracy conveyed this signal to the Russian Foreign Ministry," Price said.

According to him, Antonov will be summoned to the American diplomatic department in the afternoon local time. "We are in the process of summoning the ambassador. I expect that later today a high-level contact will take place with the Russian ambassador, during which the ambassador will hear directly from high-level representatives our strong rejection of what is obviously an unsafe and unprofessional interception by a Russian aircraft," Price said.

"As for the efforts to recover the device [from the bottom of the Black Sea], I will leave this question to my colleagues from the Pentagon," he added.

We are living in crazy prophetic times,
The Biblical birth pangs are not normal.

There is no need to fear but rather have faith in the salvation of the blood of the Lamb and look up for the blessed hope of the Rapture because the church will not be here in the great tribulation!

Ensure you are living in the Conciousness of the return of JESUS Christ and eternity.



Unfortunately for you, what you believe in is a mirage. No rapture, no jesus coming to pick Christians. Its all fake conjured by Paul the impostor.

You, WriterNiig, Kingsnairaland and others that loves anything related to the downfall of America should understand that Russia is of more evil. Whether you say America get propaganda or not. The fact is we v seen the bully. It's Putin.
He's still a bastard till he level Ukraine. He's a bastard if he doesn't fight America directly or face NATO.
Why you all love bullying like jihadists is like how boys love taking advantage of girls.

The USSR shot down US planes on more than one occasion.

An unmanned drone is fair game if Putin deems it necessary.

In recent past, US drone activity preceded Ukrainian attacks on Russian territory and this flew close to Crimea/Sevastopool.

Una go just dey rake like say u b US General. Awon, "won't dare to shoot down".

Russia is only reminding the US to stay sane. That's how they said they would not send tanks to Ukraine. They're sending tanks now. If the Russians do not down this drone today. Tomorrow, it'll fly over Crimea and the Americans will say Crimea is disputed territory.

The universal language in geopolitics is force.

-Lord

Mr Man I am not here for back and forth counter argument that adds nothing to someone's life. If you have been following up on the news you will understand that what I said is the updated story of the event. John Kirby has briefed the president and Russia ambassador has been summoned and investigations were done and found out the Russian SU 27 just collided on it's wing with the MQ-9 reaper wing and downed it on the blacksea to an irrecoverable point. Was it a shot down? NO, can PUTIN in his state of armament and depleted russian defences fighting in Ukraine try an act of War with US on this dilapidated state? The answer is capital NO. So why are you hyperventilating on my assertion. I am not here to show support on Russia/US super power discuss, I only provided depth to the poster I quoted since he seem a bit doubtful.

Well, Black Sea is Russia border, which is over 5K KM from USA border.
Just Russia traveling to Cuba, you will see USA medias making noises on it like Russia jets have dropped bombs on NY cheesy cheesy cheesy

Last week Russia flew Tu bomber close to USA border, USA was making noise about saying its provocation yet it not provocation if they flew close to Russia border/ Chinese border.

Make everyone dey crazy, we are dealing with Obi and Tinubu for now in Nigeria but when we are done with the matter.
Nigeria will fly our alpha jets close to USA and Russia because We are giant of Africa

As a result of sharp maneuvering, the US drone went into an uncontrolled flight with a loss of altitude and collided with the water surface." - Russia Ministry of Defense

Dey play. If there's any country in the world that possesses both conventional and non-conventional firepower to pose a threat to the US, it is Russia.

US would not fancy starting a war with Russia except of course it is inevitable-mind you such a war would prove very costly to both nations.

Never you make the mistake of writing Russia off, don't use Russia's performance in the Ukraine War to rate Russia's military might because Russia Is not intent on obliterating Ukraine. Russia just wanted to make a statement to NATO and allies and so far the statement has being made brazenly.
I want a direct answer,
From your own perspective, can russia single handedly defeat USA in all war scenarios?

The world doesn't start and end in NATO/EU, when you know that, you'd realize no group of nation can hold any country to submission if 70% of the rest of the world still trades with that country.

All this shalaye over a drone that is at the bottom of the Black Sea.

The US is telling the entire world that it is not at war with Russia. But it has earmarked arms packages worth $200B for Ukraine.

Russia is saying the downing was unintentional. But the drone is now an expensive coral reef.

We are firmly in "F*ck Around and Find Out" territory. If the US is not satisfied with the Kremlin's explanation, it can start a direct war if it likes. Enough with the chest beating.
