U.S President Joe Biden on Tuesday announced that  that the United States will ban Russian aircraft from flying through U.S. airspace.The announcement came in Biden’s first State of the Union address and came on the heels of similar moves by the European Union and Canada. “We will join our allies in closing off American air space to all Russian flights  further isolating Russia – and adding an additional squeeze –on their economy,” Biden said. 
 

Joe Biden vowed to make Vladimir Putin “pay a price” for Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in his first State of the Union address. The move will prohibit planes that are owned or registered by Russians from flying over the United States. The ban will come into effect by the end of Wednesday. On Day 6, the invading Russian forces pressed their assault on other towns and cities, including the strategic ports of Odesa and Mariupol in the south.
