Ryabkov said in an interview with the Mezhdunarodnaya Zhizn magazine on Tuesday, stressing that the Black Sea was not a place for such games.

Russia’s Black Sea Fleet and the border security forces had to fire warning shots to divert the destroyer.
“You need to speak as directly as possible with provocateurs, substantively explaining on your fingers that next time they should leave their provocations aside and not meddle in here.
The risks of conflict as a result of this may increase even more, the Black Sea is not the place where such games are permissible. (Sputnik/NAN)
