The Federation Council demanded to provide data on the alleged violation of Russian airspace

Estonia's statements about the alleged penetration of Russian fighter jets into the country's airspace require investigation. Grigory Karasin, Chairman of the Federation Council's International Affairs Committee, expressed this opinion on Monday, September 22, commenting on the statement by Estonian diplomat Jonathan Vsevolod that the republic has evidence of a violation of Russian airspace.

"Serious people support such statements with a special investigation, and loud statements over a megaphone contribute absolutely nothing except to incite emotional passions, hatred and, in a word, suspicion. Therefore, seriously, if we need to figure it out, let's present the relevant records," the senator said in an interview with Lenta.Ru .
