President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky in an exclusive interview with the Canadian media outlet The Globe and Mail said that Ukraine will appeal to international courts if the Iranian authorities do not fulfill their promises and their obligations regarding the downed plane of the Ukrainian airline UIA near Tehran.
“I hope that we will be able, eventually, to be able to count on a result-oriented policy from the Iranian government. Because it is not only that they don’t give us back the black boxes. It is also about their [other] promises. They have to give an official apology. They have to pay adequate compensations […] They have to do what they have promised. Otherwise, we will have no other choice – and they know our position – but to resort to the international courts,” the head of Ukrainian state noted.
Zelensky also emphasized that the Iranian side had blamed the pandemic for the delay in delivering the flight recorders to Kyiv, but ” this problem cannot wait indefinitely because we have been waiting for quite a long time now.”
