The Russian Embassy in the United States has responded to Kirby’s remarks about Russian pilots

Offensive statements by the White House about Russian pilots, who received state awards for defeating the American drone MQ-9 over the Black Sea without the use of weapons, are a manifestation of cowardice . It is reported by RIA Novosti with reference to the statement of Russian embassies in the United States.

“We are compelled to declare that rudeness and the habits of a front door hooligan are part of the habit of officials in Washington. It is obvious cowardice to insult officers of the Russian army, being formally a man in uniform who should have respected the honor and dignity of an officer,” the embassy said in a statement.

Recall that the coordinator of strategic communications at the National Security Council (NSC) of the White House, John Kirby, called the Russian pilot an “idiot” because of which the American drone MQ-9 crashed in the Black Sea.

Previously, Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu awarded the Order of Courage to Su-27 pilots who prevented the violation of the borders of the NVO region by the American MQ-9 drone.
