EU seeks delay in air passenger data sharing with Russia

The bottom line is to make sure that the information will not be misused by anyone or any country.
What could be the reason for an EU-Russia data-sharing deal to take years to finalize?
The fact is that the information is already available with someone. It is a matter of formalities to make it available to someone else. What could be the reason to be suspicious about the intentions of the second entity as long as we do not guarantee the impartiality of the first entity?

Air Iran hit by new EU aviation blacklist

Putting politics aside, there is no joking when it comes to aviation safety.
Basically, those countries and airline companies, which have been affected by the European Union’s recent ban, have two options to cope with the decision. The first option is to fully comply with the applicable safety standards.
The second option applies only if they can not comply with the required safety measures.

Since the European Union's ban affects the usage of the airspace, what about reaching various European airports without using the airspace? The European ban affects flying only. The non-complying airlines can still taxi in Europe, of course without flying. They could construct long runways and taxiways connecting their airports with the European airports.

Using airplanes as large buses is definitely a non-economic means of transportation, but it might be a good way to grow feathers the right way.
