Putin will make a law that returning airplanes to abroad is illegal. Foreigners have not been allowed to sell Russian shares already nearly a week. So nothing new there.
They cannot fly to most countries anyway, so the risk of getting them confiscated while landed somewhere is small.

- aix1 5y agoExactly. It'll be a slow and steady decline in terms of safety, pilot training and so on.

Mind, I'm from the UK our government just ignore international law when they like and only to please their own ends, not even in times of crisis, so can't see something as simple as breaking a treaty will cause any change here.
