Russia plans to expand its air patrol missions of long-range aircraft to cover the Gulf of Mexico, the country’s defense minister, Sergey Shoigu, says. He added that military training will include flights along the Russian border and the Arctic Ocean.
“In the current situation we have to maintain military presence in the western Atlantic and eastern Pacific, as well as the Caribbean and the Gulf of Mexico,” Shoigu said on Wednesday.
As part of the military training, long-range aircraft will also fly along the Russian border and over the Arctic Ocean, the defense minister said.
