Watch the VIDEO of the Russian surveillance plane's flight over the White House

The Russian television channel RT has posted the flight video of the Russian Tu-154 plane over the Capitol and the White House.

The Pentagon declared that the Tu-154 flight was carried out under the Open Skies Treaty, adding that Russian observers obtained the necessary permission to do so, and a representative of the US Air Force was aboard the plane.

The Russian Defense Ministry said a group of inspectors should conduct surveillance flights over the US between August 7 and 12 on the Tu-154M LK-1 with a maximum distance of 4,900 kilometers.
