Because of Washington's sanctions, Aeroflot will stop flying to the US.

New US sanctions may hurt the largest carrier on the territory of Russia. To date, it is known that as a result of the introduction of sanctions, the Russian airline Aeroflot may be banned from flying to the United States, and today it is the only airline that operates flights to this country.

According to experts, the imposed sanctions may be unprecedented, which can seriously affect the interests of the domestic carrier. On the other hand, if Washington really wants to take such a step, then Russia will simply close the transit for American carriers through its airspace, and in this case the United States of America will lose much more.

"Despite the absurdity of such statements, it is impossible to exclude them entirely, although we understand that this will be a rather serious precedent, we have not seen such events since the times of the Soviet Union and the Cold War. The matter is that there are bilateral intergovernmental agreements in air communication, within the framework of these agreements Aeroflot is the designated carrier on the Russian side. International air traffic is regulated in addition to intergovernmental agreements, various international conventions, which are joined by both the Russian Federation and the United States. Therefore, this kind of demarches have nothing to do with the system of mutual relations that has developed in the world aviation industry. This is an extremely politicized and absolutely unprecedented decision for modern history ", - the analyst of "Airport" has declared.

Previously, analysts have already said that as a result of the introduction of new sanctions against Russia, the cost of air tickets can significantly increase, and therefore the volume of air transportation in the country can significantly decrease, and for carriers this can become a serious problem, especially since even among The largest Russian airlines are those that work at a loss.
