The Iranian side has confirmed its readiness to fulfill international obligations in the case of the UIA plane crash. The sum of compensation to the relatives of those killed in the plane crash will be calculated after Iran provides all the information.
"Everyone is definitely interested in the fast progress [of the investigation]. Everyone is interested in the sum of compensation. I would like to emphasize once again that the sum of compensation will be calculated only after the Ukrainian side receives comprehensive information about the incident circumstances. I saw the Iranian side's readiness to complete both the technical and criminal investigations and bring perpetrators to justice," Deputy Foreign Minister of Ukraine Yevhenii Yenin said on the air of Ukraine 24 TV channel.
He reminded that the prosecutor's office of Ukraine also provided procedural guidance within the criminal proceedings over the downing of the Ukrainian plane. According to Yenin, a meeting between the leadership of the Prosecutor General's Office of Ukraine and representatives of the Iranian Prosecutor's Office had already been held.
"We expect to get specific information that could serve as evidence in criminal proceedings," the deputy minister said.
In addition, the heads of aviation services and lawyers will join the process.
Yenin added that the Ukrainian side would insist on the maximum sum of compensation to the relatives of the crash victims.
