The move follows the forced landing of a Ryanair flight by Belarus on May 23, which flew over the Eastern European country en route to Vilnius, Lithuania from Athens. After the plane landed in Minsk, at the request of the Belarusian Air Force, the authorities detained dissident journalist Roman Protasevich, who is an opponent of the authoritarian President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko.

Under the proposed DOT order, both domestic and foreign airlines would be prohibited from selling routes from the United States to Belarus. The decree also applies to connecting flights operated by several airlines if the final destination is Belarus. Interested parties have until July 1 to make public comments on this proposal before the DOT issues a final decree.

The European Union has already banned the Belarusian flagship air carrier Belavia from entering the airspace of the EU countries and requires airlines based in the EU to avoid the Belarusian sky.
