MINSK, Nov 3 - PrimePress. Belarus suggests establishing a united aviation administration within the framework of the Union State of Belarus and Russia or the Eurasian Economic Union in response to sectoral sanctions imposed by western states. Director of the Aviation Department of Belarus’ Transport and Communications Ministry Artyom Sikorsky made a statement to this effect at a press conference on 3 November.
“The sanctions force us to think about acting faster to establish a united aviation administration. The regulatory body can be established within the framework of either the Union State of Belarus and Russia or the Eurasian Economic Union,” Sikorsky said.
In his words, the realization of Union State programs will bump against the establishment of such an aviation administration. “There is no doubt we need a collective response to the aviation extremism originating from our Western partners,” Sikorsky said.
The official said that the united aviation administration will have to regulate flight safety and access to the market in addition to enabling equal conditions for all the air carriers. “We are going to make such proposals to our colleagues from the Russian Federation and colleagues in the Eurasian Economic Union,” Sikorsky said. “It is a matter of current interest for us.
