U.S. and Russian officials both slapped new restrictions on Open Skies Treaty flights. In late December 2017, the Russian Defense Ministry announced that after Jan. 1, 2018 it would no longer allow the U.S. to launch flights from three designated Open Skies military bases within its borders. That followed a U.S. announcement closing one U.S. base in Georgia and one in South Dakota to overnight stays by Russian crews. The move is a rollback of an agreement in place since 1992, one of a series of arms-control deals intended to foster trust and transparency as the relationship between the nuclear superpowers thawed at the end of the Cold War. But it’s also part of a larger conflict that has escalated in recent years, especially since Russia seized Crimea from Ukraine in 2014. Each side has accused the other of violating agreements, including a 1987 nuclear weapons treaty.Источник: https://en.censor.net.ua/n3081205
