Zelensky declared his readiness to file a lawsuit against Iran because of a downed airliner

19

The President of Ukraine said that Kiev is ready to file lawsuits against Iran. This readiness is connected with the case of striking the Iranian calculation of air defense on an airplane of Ukraine’s International Airlines (UIA) earlier this year. Recall that the plane was shot down due to a fateful set of circumstances, at a time when the Iranian air defense systems were awaiting an American military response to a missile attack on US military bases in Iraq.

According to Vladimir Zelensky, who spoke for Canadian journalists, a lawsuit will be filed with international courts if the Iranian side does not fulfill its promise.



What promises are Iran talking about?

According to Vladimir Zelensky, this is the provision of data from the flight recorders of the airliner, as well as the payment of compensation.
Zelensky said that Tehran should make an “official apology”.

President of Ukraine:

They must pay adequate compensation. Otherwise ... they know our position. We will have no choice but to appeal to international courts.

The plane crash occurred on January 8 near Tehran. Onboard were 176 people, none of them survived.

It is important to note that Iran almost immediately recognized its responsibility and declared its readiness to pay compensation to the Ukrainian airline and the families of the dead passengers and crew. By the way, if we talk about passengers, the largest number of them are citizens of Iran and Canada. Also on board were Afghans, British, Ukrainians, subjects of Sweden.

      so there is not only Malaysian, Ukrainian air defense only shot down civilian sides. Novosibirsk board.
      And also - it’s a sure thing, since Iran itself pleaded guilty, then Zenya-Benya will win 100%.

            Compensation of 200 thousand dollars was paid per one victim.
            Compensation was paid ex gratia, that is, without recognition of legal liability, 7,8 million dollars to Russia and 7,5 million to Israel.

              So.
              They paid the same to the citizens of Israel, that of Russia.
              But there someone wrote above that they did not pay compensation, which is not true.
              Paid, and very high.

    The Iranians, in contrast to the Ukrainians, have a conscience, for, having shot down a plane by mistake, they did not fly, and honestly admitting their terrible mistake, they apologized to the families of the victims. Uk-roina, having shot down a Boeing over the Donbass, as well as Russian civilian aircraft, the same Tu
    over the Crimea, she never confessed to her crimes, and, moreover, she did not apologize! And with regard to compensation, the Persians need to be linked to the payment of compensation by the victims in Boeing, shot down over the Donbass.

      . The Iranians, in contrast to the Ukrainians, have a conscience, for, having shot down a plane by mistake, they did not begin to boom,

      They began to bustle until they were actually pressed against the wall.

    Strange, Iran almost immediately admitted his guilt and declared his readiness to pay compensation. What else is needed? Oh yes, recorders, in order to probably try to fuck something, and from this - to falsify something to please the Americans and not to forget yourself.
    We will have no choice but to appeal to international courts.
    What, what, but in this the Ukrainian side has become more proficient. Sombery and earning extra money through various courts worked out perfectly.

    As I understand it, the victims did not receive compensation when Ukrainian air defense shot down a Tu-154 over the Black Sea flying from Israel? Yes there is only a miracle forced to admit his guilt, but money is still waiting
