Putin explains why Russia resumed strategic aviation drills several years ago

Moscow, Nov 14 (UNI/Sputnik) Russia resumed strategic aviation drills several years ago because the US continued such flights, Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Sunday.
“We did not do it in 1990s and almost until the mid-2000s… We terminated our strategic aviation flights unilaterally. But our American partners continued,” Putin said, as aired on Rossiya 1 broadcaster. “We waited for about five years and resumed those flights. So, there is no surprise about it, and we have been flying for several years already,”.
