Beijing, January 17. Attempts at a provocative flight near the borders of Russia ended in extreme surprise for the pilots from the United States - Russian planes showed aerobatics.

The collapse of the USSR did not stop the provocations by the United States against Russia. The confrontation continues and has even grown in recent years. Washington is sending its planes and ships to Russian borders, claiming peacekeeping goals. In this regard, Moscow has to react harshly. "PolitRussia" tells about this , referring to the military analyst of the Chinese newspaper Sohu.

Another incident took place in the airspace over the Mediterranean Sea. In a short period of time, two meetings of Russian and American aircraft were recorded there. They made US crews nervous. For the first time, the pilots of the US Navy's P-8 Poseidon saw a Su-35 fighter flying upside down right above them.

The second incident happened a few days after the first. The Russian plane flew in front of the American plane, causing slight turbulence with the exhaust of its turbines. Sohu noted that this is how the Russians responded for previous US provocations in the Baltic and Black Seas.

Earlier it became known that the Su-35S pilots are practicing intercepting the enemy in the Far East.
