Should have ringed them with fighters and directed to land at an assigned place or be shot. Then sent the crews back to Russia flying coach, minus their birds.

The Russian Tu-95 Bear bombers were tracked flying a route across the northern Atlantic near Iceland, Greenland, and Canada’s northeast.

Under what authority would we do what you propose? Have they declared war on us?

Under what authority did the US track, and sometimes sink, German U-boats in the same area even before the US was formally involved in WW2?

If this is the kind of crap Russia wants to pull, they should be prepared to accept a forceful reaction.
