Eurocontrol: restrictions on the airspace of Ukraine and Russia will remain until 2029

European Organization for the Safety of Air Navigation (Eurocontrol) in the air traffic forecast (.pdf) claims for the coming years that restrictions on civil aviation flights in the airspace of Russia, Ukraine, Belarus and Moldova will remain at least until 2029.
From the forecast of Eurocontrol, it follows that the European aviation industry continues to recover from the COVID-19 pandemic, but the conflict in Ukraine has a negative impact. The organization recorded a decrease in flights by 90% in Ukraine.
Ukraine completely closed its airspace to civilian aircraft on February 24, the day the special military operation began. Europe and the US have closed their skies to Russian aircraft.
Russia later retaliated by closing its airspace to these countries. After February 24, Belarus closed part of its sky for civil aviation flights.
