I think that`s unjust. They did it because US refused landing of planes with some of our officials there,as far as those officials are personas-non-grata there. But to ban countries because of couple of guys, not the best ones by the way:-))) is unjust.

I think we will see a lot of the petty squabbles happening more often.
The US gives Belarus 200,000 per year to be allowed to use the airspace, (dont quote me, but thats the general idea).

Belarus, like Russia, Like the US are always their own worst enemies.
