They can see the planes on radar and warn them to stay away from Turkish airspace at any time. Even if they haven't crossed into "Turkish airspace" which is another truth which is far from simple. There's no "lying" going on. Countries can claim whatever territory they like as their own and tend to defend it as such (like the US does for US water vs international waters). The UN doesn't make the maps, they just have their own (country borders are constantly shifting), just as Belgium does, just as Israel does, etc. 17 seconds or 7 seconds, this article demonstrates the jets were violating Turkish airspace (not that I care about Turkey and Russia, it could be anywhere) according to a number of widely accepted maps. So what?
