KIEV (Reuters) – Ukraine is
banning flights by Russian airlines from Oct. 25 as part of a wave of
sanctions against Russia over its support for separatists in the east of
the country, the government said on Friday.
Kiev said last week it was imposing restrictions on more
than 90 companies or groups, mostly from Russia, and including airlines
Transaero <TAER.MM> and Aeroflot <AFLT.MM>, the national flag carrier.
Spelling out the details of the sanctions, Prime Minister
Arseny Yatseniuk told a government meeting: “In accordance with a
decision by the Security Council, the government of Ukraine is adopting a
decision to ban flights by Russian companies, primarily Aeroflot and
Transaero, to Ukraine.”
