US citizens should leave Russia while flights are available. This advice is given to Americans by the US Embassy in Russia.
“U.S. citizens should consider leaving Russia immediately via commercial communication options still available,” the statement reads.
It also states that more and more airlines are canceling flights to and from Russia, and many countries have closed airspace for Russian carriers in response to events in Ukraine.
Recall, on February 24, Russian President Vladimir Putin made an emergency appeal to the Russians and announced a special military operation in the Donbass. In his speech, he stated that “circumstances require decisive action from Russia” and stressed that “Russia will not allow Ukraine to have nuclear weapons.” In response to Russia’s actions, Western countries (USA, Canada, European Union, Great Britain, Japan) announced new, tougher sanctions against the Russian Federation, including financial and economic ones. A number of European countries have imposed bans on the flights of Russian aircraft, including Austria, Belgium, Great Britain, Germany, Denmark, Ireland, Poland, Czech Republic, the Netherlands, Italy, Norway, France and North Macedonia, Canada, Spain, Portugal. A little later, the head of the European Commission announced that the EU would close airspace for all Russian aircraft, including private ones.
