A military drone may not be the only thing the U.S. is missing in the Black Sea. That means the U.S. has no means to recover the drone, which the U.S. said it brought down in the Black Sea on Tuesday after a Russian fighter jet collided with it. “And most of the countries who border the Black Sea are our allies, and it’s important now for us to show how we support our allies.”The State Department and National Security Council did not respond to requests for comment. Former national security officials who have operated in the region said that the level of U.S. and NATO investment in the Black Sea does not match its strategic importance. “We have to rely on the three NATO allies [Bulgaria, Romania and Turkey] and the Black Sea states to lead,” Horrell said.
