Any country or entity that imposes a no-fly zone over Ukraine would immediately be viewed by Russia as entering the Russia-Ukraine conflict, Russia’s president said March 5.

“Now we are hearing that a no-fly zone must be established over the territory of Ukraine,” Russian President Vladimir Putin said, adding that “any move in this direction will be viewed by us as a participation in the armed conflict of whichever side whose territory will pose a threat to our service members.”
