Russia's Lavrov says U.S. ignoring fact of Black Sea airspace restrictions

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said on Wednesday that the United States - in comments regarding the crashing of one of its military drones in the Black Sea - was "ignoring" the fact that Russia had established air space restrictions in the area.

In an interview on state TV, Lavrov said Russia established limits on flights in the Black Sea region after the start of Russia's military campaign in Ukraine - a fact the United States was well aware of.
