Yeah they want the status quo kept. Much like that happen along in the inter-German Border.

You know back in the 80s Aircraft would regular go down both in and around German and Korea and nothing was much done, even when an aircraft would crash in the US. The military would just shrug it off. Then until about 2003 any time an aircraft went down there would be so called safety stand-downs to allow everyone to go over procedures and make sure everyone was doing the right thing. Since we are back to the same. Which is always amaze me to a point that air crews seem more expendable than others.
