MOSCOW (UrduPoint News / Sputnik - 26th November, 2018) The recent incident in the Kerch Strait was a Ukrainian provocation, and its time, location and form were premeditated, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Grigory Karasin told Sputnik on Monday.
"Obviously, it was a provocation, with its time, location and form premeditated," Karasin said.
On Sunday, three ships of the Ukrainian Navy, in violation of Articles 19 and 21 of the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea, crossed the Russian sea border, entered the temporarily closed area of the Russian territorial waters, and were moving from the Black Sea toward the Kerch Strait, according to the Russian Federal Security Service (FSB).
The FSB said later that the same three ships of the Ukrainian Navy � Berdyansk, Nikopol and Yany Kapu � had been detained after violating Russian state border. The Ukrainian ships did not react to legal demands of the ships accompanying them and made dangerous maneuvers, the FSB noted.
