Latvia, Lithuania, and Estonia have denied Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico permission to fly through their airspace to Moscow for the May 9 parade. This was reported by UNN.
Details
Estonian Foreign Minister Margus Tsahkna stated that Fico will again not be allowed to use Estonian airspace for a flight to Moscow to participate in the May 9 parade, as this event is aimed at glorifying Russian aggression against Ukraine.
We denied him this last year, and the same principle applies now
They added that Estonia's position is unequivocal: no country can use Estonian airspace to strengthen ties with Russia at a time when the Kremlin continues to violate international norms and commit aggression against Ukraine and the security of Europe as a whole.
At the same time, Fico himself reported on a similar ban from Latvia and Lithuania on Facebook.
They have already announced that they will not allow us to fly through their territory during the flight to Moscow. I will definitely find another route, as last year
