Nov 11, 2021 (newstodate): As if the current global disruptions of the global supply chains weren't enough of a burden, a threatening further cooling of relations between Russia and western countries is now looming as well.
Global media have reported the possibility of imposing sanctions against Aeroflot as part of a new sanctions package against Belarus - and Russia is immediately responding with threats to close Russian airspace to Western airlines if such sanctions are enforced.
-If sanctions are imposed on our airline, we will introduce similar sanctions against their companies, which are very dependent on Russia due to its geographic location, Vladimir Dzhabarov, first deputy head of the international committee of the Federation Council, says in a comment to the Russian media RIA Novosti.
