The airspace of Ukraine will be effectively closed from February 14 due to the actions of Western insurance companies. It is reported by “Strana.ua” with reference to sources.
The interlocutor of the publication noted that the largest British insurers, who reinsure other international companies, sent an official message to all world aircraft owners that insurance coverage for all aircraft in Ukraine would cease to operate in 48 hours. Private jet owners acknowledged receipt of the notification.
“Not a single plane will take off or take off from Ukraine from about the middle of the day on Monday,” the source said.
It is clarified that since January, international insurers have become more and more insistent in demanding that the aircraft of foreign carriers that they serviced not remain parked in Kiev. The decision to not cover the risks of flights over Ukraine has been ripe for a long time, the source said.
On February 12, it also became known that the Dutch airline KLM suspended flights to Ukraine. Earlier, a number of countries announced recommendations to leave Ukraine due to fears of an escalation of the situation. The US State Department urged non-essential staff of the embassy in Kiev to leave Ukraine.
Western media flooded with publications about a possible Russian “invasion” of Ukraine. In this regard, Russia is threatened with sanctions, while Moscow has repeatedly denied these accusations. Deputy Foreign Minister of the Russian Federation Sergei Ryabkov noted that Moscow has no intentions to attack Ukraine and cannot be.
At the same time, Bloomberg called the date of the “invasion”. According to sources “familiar with the issue” of the American agency, we are talking about February 15th. Meanwhile, the Politico newspaper reported that US President Joe Biden, during a videoconference with the leaders of allied countries, said that Russia could allegedly attack Ukraine on February 16. The publication also cites its own sources.
President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky, in this regard, asked for evidence of the allegedly planned “invasion” of Russia. According to him, there was “too much” information about this.
