Ukraine foreign minister says #Iran cooperating in plane crash probe

Ukraine's Foreign Minister Vadym Prystaiko says Iran
...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan, the abbreviation IRGC is a cognate form of Stürmabteilung (or SA), the term Supreme Guide is a cognate form of either Shah or Führer or maybe both, and they hate Jews Zionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol...
has been cooperating with an investigation into the crash of a Ukrainian passenger plane near Tehran, adding that experts from his country have been granted access to the black boxes.

Speaking at a televised briefing in Kiev on Friday, Prystaiko added that Ukraine sees "full cooperation" from Iran in probing the cause of the crash.

"Our team has now got access to the black boxes," he said, adding that Ukrainian experts have also obtained access to the plane's debris and the crash site.

Kiev has sent a team of nearly 50 experts to Iran to participate in the probe after Ukraine International Airlines Boeing 737-800 went down near Tehran on Wednesday, killing all 176 people on board.

Despite claims by Canada, Britannia, the United States and some other countries with a stake in the crisis-hit Boeing company that the plane was hit by an Iranian missile, probably by mistake, Prystaiko said Ukraine does not want to come to conclusions yet about the cause of the disaster.

The Ukrainian foreign minister said the issue of where the black boxes would be analyzed was still a matter of discussion, but noted that his country wants this to take place in Kiev.

In an exclusive interview with Press TV on Thursday, Head of Iran Civil Aviation Organization Ali Abedzadeh dismissed as "illogical rumors" reports that the Ukrainian plane was brought down by missiles.
