| U.S. military planes take to Russian skies |
| 2009-09-09 |
| American military planes will soon be seen above Russia after a new transit agreement with the U.S. came into force. It allows America to airlift military equipment to Afghanistan via Russian airspace. Two months after President Dmitry Medvedev and his U.S. counterpart Barack Obama pledged to press the reset button, some of those plans are coming to life. Washington is now allowed to send military aircraft to Afghanistan through Russia's airspace. More than four thousand flights per year are scheduled to deliver troops and various types of cargo, including military hardware. |
