The department noted that the diplomat had been instructed in the unprofessional actions of the ship's crew.
Earlier, the military department informed that in the waters of the Sea of Japan, Chafee approached the territorial waters of the Russian Federation and tried to cross the state border. The anti-submarine ship “Admiral Tributs” set a course to expel the intruder after several ignored warnings, and the American destroyer turned the course 60 meters from the Russian ship. The Department of Defense said the US military's actions were in gross violation of international rules for preventing ship collisions, as well as a bilateral agreement on the prevention of incidents on the high seas.
