Russian aircrafts flying very close to Turkish airspace on Sunday for the fourth time in two weeks, was not a hostile move by Russia, says Turkish Foreign Ministry. Turkish F-16 jets followed a Russian military aircraft flying approximately 15 miles off  the Black Sea coast on Sunday (just outside Turkish airspace). A senior official from the Turkish Foreign Ministry said that Turkey’s following the Russian jets was “a self-driven measure taken upon approaching Turkish airspace during an operation in conformance with the international law.” Russia’s military operations do not point to any tension between the two neighbors said Davutoglu earlier when questioned on the subject. “This is not an inconvenient event for Turkey. We do not see such flights as hostile,” said the official. “Within our military engagement rules, we take precautionary measures in case of a parallel flight to our airspace.” First such Russian flight close to Turkish airspace was on October 23, as announced in the website of Turkish General Staff.
