On Monday NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg said that the alliance ruled out the possibility of a "no-fly zone".
He said this in an interview with NBC News.
"We have no intention to enter Ukraine by land or air," said Stoltenberg in response to a question about whether the alliance could establish a "no-fly zone" over Ukraine.
According to him, NATO seeks to ensure that the conflict "does not get out of control, does not escalate further and does not turn into a full-scale war in Europe with the participation of NATO allies."
Let us remind you that today the spokesman for the Air Force Command Yuriy Ignat told LB.ua that Russian aircraft -30 and Su-35 are maneuvering in the no-fly zone over the Chornobyl and Zaporizhzhya nuclear power plants; they are firing from there. They are doing this to prevent Ukrainian troops from firing back as shooting an aircraft over a nuclear power plant could lead to an environmental catastrophe.
Yuri Ignat noted that it is very important that IAEA and states-members of NATO consider shut airspace over Ukraine urgently by creating a "no-fly zone"as it concerns not only security of Ukraine but the whole region because of Russian Army actions that can cause a continental catastrophe.
Earlier, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy also demanded from Western leaders the implementation of a "no-fly zone".
