The ones that have substantial amount of national ownership, or also helped out foreign owned airlines in their countries? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I haven't heard of any governments bailing out foreign owned airlines recently.

That's not to say I don't feel for anyone who works for VA, of course I do, but there's a business ethics and then a people ethics way of approaching this.
