Russian fighter jet shot down by Turkey http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-34907983 this will add an extra dimension to the current tensions
yep the Russians won't **** about, this incident 'could be a **** and fan' moment given that Turkey is a member of NATO
Ok , no-one wants their airspace violated, but surely Turkey realised that a Russian plane wasn't after them while operating against IS in Syria which is just next door. Who needs enemies when.............. ?
This has been a long time coming. Russia think they can just violate anybody's airspace that they like, Turkey has warned them what the consequences would be and the Turks don't **** about either.
Theres a russian sub lurking of scotland aonewhere. The hunt is on for it. But as the UK scrapped a lot of military gear. The French and Canadians are having to look Useless ****ing UK. Oh and **** the Russians,
Let's get Israel involved just to add a bit of spice the mix. Be a bit like chucking a whole tub of Madras powder in your lentil soup.
Sorry. but Russia have no right whatsoever to violate another sovereign country's airspace. I'm sure if it was the other way around then Russia would have done the same..
Russia are denying that they violated the Turkish air space ...I s'pose as you'd expect them to state, just hope it's not the catalyst for an escalation into sabre rattling stupidities
I confirmed reports that the pilots ejected and have been taken hostage when they both landed. **** and fan spring to mind.
They would say that wouldn't they Like you said mate, the Turks don't **** around either. They've got the latest American hardware in the air. The Russians will be reluctant to take them on. The Turks will also have recordings of the releated warnings they made to release if the Russians do get arsey.
If it is a rebel group in Syria that have them, then it's probably a rebel group that the Russians have been bombing. Good luck to them with that one!
Russia have been acting as though they have carte blanche to do what they want, wherever the **** they want. As much as I don't like Turkey, I'm glad they've stood up against them and made a stand.
Very surprised if they have killed one of them straightaway. I'm assuming he would have already been dead...
