Russia/Global Security Risks – Were Shots Fired? Similarities and Differences Between the Situation in the South China Sea and the Incident off the Russian Cape Fiolent (Andrey Gubin, Valdai Discussion Club)

July 2, 2021

The incident with the British destroyer HMS Defender near Cape Fiolent on June 23 once again demonstrated how fragile international relations are, especially their military-political component. Her Majesty’s ship, according to the Russian authorities, entered 3 km into the territorial waters of the Russian Federation, which is a flagrant violation of the 1982 UN Convention on the Law of the Sea. The violation of the state border was stopped after warning shots were fired by the Coast Guard ship, and bombs were dropped from the Su-24M front-line bomber along the course of the destroyer.
