Wow! That’s some footage. The captain of that Soviet destroyer was an idiot. Was there any sort of protest filed over this?
I'm sure they were, but I doubt it was pushed very hard. We made our point (that the Black Sea was not a Soviet internal water and was subject under international law to the same right of innocent passage as any other open sea) just conducting the transit and the USSR collapsed shortly afterwards anyway.
I conducted quite a few Freedom of Navigation (FON) transits when I was active duty. They are all about establishing precedent.
