Ukrainian plane shot down near Tehran on January 8, 2020
Kiev wants to get by with extrajudicial mechanisms. Iran will pay compensation, but it will take up to five years.
Ukraine does not want litigation with Iran in the case of the downing of a UIA airliner near Tehran. Ukraine’s Foreign Ministry said it may take up to five years to resolve the situation. Ukraine’s Deputy Foreign Minister Yevhen Yenin said this on the air of Ukraine 24 channel.
He believes that Iran will eventually pay all the compensation due to the families of those killed in the plane crash. However, this will take time.
“It is difficult for me to forecast specific dates … We hope to do everything as quickly as possible and to do it with extrajudicial mechanisms. I hope that we obtain the result within a maximum period of two to five years,” said the deputy for Foreign Relations. Minister stressed.
According to Yenin, according to world practice, court proceedings in these cases can last up to 10 years.
“We really hope to resolve everything out of court,” said the diplomat.
Recall that the Boeing 737-800 of the Ukrainian airline UIA was shot down by two missiles fired by the Iranian army on January 8, 2020. The plane has just taken off from Tehran airport and is heading to Kiev. On board were 167 passengers and 9 crew members, all dead.
As previously reported in the Attorney General’s Office, only Ukraine is investigating the UIA disaster.
As a reminder, NSDC Secretary Alexei Danilov spoke about compensation to relatives of those killed in the UIA plane crash.
