National flag carrier Vietnam Airlines will temporarily suspend regular flights from Hanoi to Moscow starting from 25 March until further notice, the state-run Vietnam News Agency (VNA) reported on Wednesday.

The suspension was to review procedures, requirements and regulations related to flight operations in Russia, VNA reported. The two countries have close ties dating back to the Soviet era and Vietnam has not so far condemned Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
