The NATO military alliance on Sunday demanded an international investigation into Belarus’ diversion of a passenger flight and arrest of an opposition activist.

“We are closely monitoring the forcible landing in Belarus of a Ryanair plane flying from Athens to Vilnius, and the reported detention of opposition figure Roman Protasevich,” NATO secretary general Jens Stoltenberg tweeted.

“This is a serious and dangerous incident, which requires international investigation.”
