Tehran has not yet "given Kiev" documents about downing passenger plane

Officials responsible for the investigation into the downing of the Ukrainian passenger plane by the Revolutionary Guards say they have not yet received the documents and evidence that the Islamic Republic had promised from Tehran.

According to the Russian Interfax news agency, citing the Ukrainian Prosecutor General's Office, despite the passage of a month and a half since the last meeting between the delegations of the two countries, no action has been taken by Iran to hold a new round of negotiations.

Nearly a month from now marks the anniversary of the crash of a Ukrainian passenger plane with 167 passengers and 9 crew members in Iranian skies after taking off from Tehran International Airport.

Ukrainian officials say that the results of the investigation into this incident and the manner in which compensation will be paid by the Islamic Republic authorities should be clarified as soon as possible.
