Western countries deliberately block the investigation of the incident with the Ryanair aircraft in Belarus and specially postponed his consideration for the year, the representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Maria Zakharov said. This is reported by the correspondent “Lental.ru”.
Minsk appealed to ICAO (International Organization of Civil Aviation – Approx. Length.Ru) with a request to consider this issue soon, but a number of countries are trying to postpone all this history, discuss this uncomfortable topic for them to the far box. With Their filing consideration was postponed to the next session, which will be held in 2022, “said Zakharov.
The representative of the Foreign Ministry is confident that Western countries do everything to block the discussion of the issue of landing of the aircraft, since “the topic was won by” – that is, all the necessary measures, including the introduction of economic and political sanctions against Belarus, the West has already undertaken.
At the meeting in ICAO, which was considered the question of the investigation of the case, representatives of Belarus were not even invited. All this suggests that European politicians who are aggressive politics in the attitude of Minsk do not have real reasons for it, Zakharov believes.
On May 23, on the instructions of the special services of Belarus on the territory of the country, the Boeing 737 of Ryanair was planted. The pretext for the emergency landing of the liner was the information that the bomb is allegedly laid on its board. As soon as the plane landed in Minsk, Belarusian law enforcement officers detained the founder of the Telegram channel NEXTA Roman Protasevich, who was a passenger of this flight. His homeland is accused of creating extremist formation and calls to mass riots. Information on the detection or disposal of the bomb on board never appeared. ICAO began investigating the incident.
