    - I mean it's definitely short term thinking on their part - Reagen May 23, 18:14 1
      - Dictators aren’t known for taking the long view of things. - spamlet May 23, 18:41

        there's a zero percent chance Belarus on purpose shoots down a passenger plane. I don't take that chance if I'm the pilot, but it wouldn't happen. -- nm - mafic May 23, 19:02
        
        I'm not saying the airline should have resisted. I'm saying the whole situation is atrocious and horrifying. -- nm - Beryllium May 23, 18:44
    - (And they'd probably have been forced out of the sky by a MiG if they didn't) -- nm - Reagen May 23, 18:06
    - Then Belarus needs to be struck from the Open Skies treaty. -- nm - Mop May 23, 18:04 6
      - I don't think that's what the open skies treaty is. That's nuclear arms control. -- nm - Ender May 23, 18:38
      - I'm pretty sure the US left the Open Skies Treaty -- nm - JD May 23, 18:28 4
        
        Not a lot of airlines need to fly across the U.S. to get to another country. I assume Canada and Mexico have separate agreements. -- nm - Mop May 23, 18:32 3
        
        Oh. I think we're talking about two different things. Those aren't treaties. They're agreements and indeed referred to Open Skies - JD May 23, 18:40 2
        
        Putin got donny to pull out of the Open Skies treaty so he would have an excuse to prevent US from flying over them -- nm - zeitgeist May 23, 19:07
