According to Bild, the new airline’s first flight to Minsk is scheduled to leave Istanbul on December 23 at 5:20 in the morning.
Germany’s largest newspaper Bild says Russia has established a new airline in Turkey after it launched a war of aggression in Ukraine.
According to the newspaper, the Polish security service has warned of a new organized flow of migrants to Europe, the purpose of which is to destabilize the EU. According to Bild, the Southwind airline company founded in Turkey is part of a plan made by Russia and Belarus.
According to Bild, the airline’s intention is to fly migrants cheaply from Turkey to Russia and Belarus and thus transport even more migrants to the EU border. According to Bild, the company’s first Minsk flight is scheduled to leave Istanbul on December 23 at 5:20 in the morning.
The company offers direct flights from Istanbul to Minsk for around 195 euros, while the smugglers who brought migrants to Europe and Finland’s eastern border may have charged people up to several thousand euros.
The company describes itself on the company’s website as a Turkish airline. According to Bild, only the company’s head office is located in Turkey. In reality, according to the magazine, Southwind is managed by Russian entities.
The company’s equipment and personnel are said to come largely from the Russian Nordwind Airlines, whose planes are prohibited from using the airspace of Western countries. With the help of a new airline established in Turkey, Russian planes can fly to Minsk in EU airspace instead of going around Russia.
