Ukrainian President Voldymyr Zelenskyy is pushing his call for foreign countries to impose a no-fly zone over Ukraine.
Establishing a no-fly zone would risk escalating the conflict by involving foreign militaries directly. Although the United States and many Western countries have backed Ukraine with weapons shipments, they have sent no troops.
Zelenskyy said in a video address on Sunday that the world is strong enough to close our skies.”
NATO countries have ruled out policing a no-fly zone, which would bar all unauthorised aircraft from flying over Ukraine.
