Command Master Chief of the USS Donald Cook said “we will not cede space,” in a speech in Klaipeda, Thursday. His comments follow an incident where two Russian Sukhoi Su-24 bombers swooped close to his US Navy destroyer in the Baltic Sea on Tuesday. According to US officials, the jets flew within 9.1 metres (30 feet) of the destroyer.
"The objection from the US Navy and the Russian's military activity and their conduct is not about fear, but it’s about safe and professional behaviour at sea between militaries in international waters and international airspace,” stated Schlosser.
