A Chinese military jet intercepted a Canadian Armed Forces Aurora aircraft in an “aggressive manner” on Monday in international waters off the coast of China...
why are Canadian military aircraft flying in international waters off the coast of China
From the description of the video, should you care to read it:
Global News was on board the Canadian military aircraft reporting on the mission, which is part of Operation NEON, Canada’s contribution to helping enforce sanctions against North Korea, when the aggressive intercepts took place.
I’m not a bot … at least I don’t think I am
But I still want to ask … why are Canadian military aircraft flying in international waters off the coast of China.
How would we feel if Chinese military aircraft were flying off the coast of Canada?
And there is military tension on Chinese borders, why would we want to further antagonize them?
They were on a mission related to sanctions in North Korea which is right next to china.
You mean, why are planes flying in international airspace?
Maybe grow up a bit, China. You’re behaving like a toddler.
It said why in the video.
Uh, they already do that. We generally don’t buzz the planes and antagonize them
From the description of the video, should you care to read it:
It’s part of our role in ensuring international sanctions are followed
It’s about shipping lanes to North Korea, nothing to do with China
How would we feel if they sent spy balloons directly over our countries?
Canada > China, they don’t need permission to fly planes over the ocean
