Can someone explain why NATO won't just declare that 100km around their border is a no flight zone and everything will.be shot down that enters it unauthorized? (ofc with agreement of Ukraine)

Yes that's probably seen as escalation but so what, Russia keeps escalating and aren't stopped by mere words.

That zone would reach into the second largest Russian city.

NATO might be led by idiots, but luckily they do draw the line at starting WW3.

Because NATO is at peace time, and there's commercial and GA traffic that has to be able to fly in and out of the territory.
