UK introducing New Sanctions Against Russian Airlines

Foreign Secretary Liz Truss has said the UK will introduce fresh sanctions to stop state-owned Russian airlines Aeroflot, Ural Airlines and Rossiya Airlines from selling their unused landing slots at British airports. Reports said.

Truss says the UK has already closed its airspace to Russian airlines but will be “making sure they can’t cash in their lucrative landing slots at our airports.”

The UK government has said it estimates the landing slots are worth £50 million, according to Reports.
