  The president of the EU Commission does the same: https://twitter.com/vonderleyen/status/1396566441370001413 https://twitter.com/vonderleyen/status/1396566441370001413 The outrageous and illegal behaviour of the regime in Belarus will have consequences. Those responsible for the #Ryanair hijacking must be sanctioned. Journalist Roman Protasevich must be released immediately. EUCO will discuss tomorrow action to take.

  Very accurate description IMO. I hope no EU company flies over Belarus after that. In retrospect this is an unacceptable risk. PS: Which also brings to mind the downed Malaysian flight when flying over Russian-friendly Ukraine. I hope that airlines also have these areas in their no-fly lists.
