The European Union has made 20 Russian airlines to the black air security list, the European Commission statement says.
It is noted that the decision is associated with the procedure for re-registration of foreign aircraft in the Russian register.
“I want to clearly note that this decision is not another sanction against Russia, it is made exclusively on the basis of technical considerations and security reasons. We do not mix security with politics,” EU Commissioner said on Addent Valean’s transport.
