May 25 (UPI) -- Leaders of the U.S. and Russian navies met in Moscow Tuesday to discuss air-to-air intercepts in international airspace and interactions between the two nations' ships, the Navy said.
The Prevention of Incidents On and Over the Waters Outside the Limits of the Territorial Sea (INCSEA) is an annual event held to discuss the Incidents at Sea Agreement the two countries signed in 1972.

That agreement "codified the mutual interest of both sides in promoting safety of navigation and safety of flight when operating on and over international waters," and specified annual consultations should be held to review compliance with the agreement, said a press release issued by the Navy Tuesday.
