That small strip of land where the Russian was supposedly flying over Turkey would only take seconds in a fighter jet .Turks and our Govt state he got 10 warnings and there is no way there is enough time to give that many warnings and then intercept the Russian jet.

Funny how the Turks state they are protecting their borders and yet cannot against hundreds of thousands of immigrants pouring in.

Worse, Turkey claims their airspace extends several miles into Syria, a claim which Russia does not recognize and which doesn’t follow the generally-understood definition of where a country’s airspace ends.

Also rather funny that Turkey is fiercely defending its southern border while its jets routinely violate Greek airspace over disputed territory in the Aegean. There have been a lot of mock dogfights in that airspace over the last three decades.
