鈥淐an you imagine when you call your friends, your friendly nations and you ask: 鈥楶lease close the sky. Close the airspace. Please stop the bombing. How many more cruise missiles have to fall on our cities until you make this happen?鈥 And they in return express their deep concerns about the situation,鈥 Zelensky said in Ukrainian.
A no-fly zone over Ukraine is widely considered unlikely to happen, as NATO would have to deploy fighter planes, refuelling tankers and electronic-surveillance aircraft to support the no-fly zone. Such a mission would put NATO pilots in a position to shoot down Russian aircraft flying over Ukraine, which could trigger an international war and the possibility of a nuclear fallout.
