MFA: If Russia blocks the creation of a tribunal by Boeing, we will solve the issue in a different way

"Introduction of the issue at the UN General Assembly - perhaps. But there are others. It is possible to create a so-called mixed-type ships. It is about the way it was in the case of the assassination of former Lebanese Prime Minister. It is a well-known precedent case (in 2007, the United Nations and Lebanon jointly set up a special tribunal to identify the perpetrators of the murder of former Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik Hariri, - Ed.). There are opportunities to make the national jurisdiction of the case. The investigation is possible and following the example of the investigation of a terrorist act in Lockerbie (the terrorist attack that occurred on December 21, 1988 year. In the sky over the Scottish town of Lockerbie was blown Boeing-747-121 airline PanAm, which killed 270 people - ed.). That is - we consider all possible options. Some of them I will not knowingly detail. On this on this week, we will work actively, "- Klimkin said.

The head of the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry said that Russia is now made its own draft resolution. But it is not only diplomatically overall, he is trying to call into question what has made the independent investigation team.

"We will resist, of course, but for us it is important not politicized. Despite the emotional burden, and what happened, we believe that it is necessary to establish the tribunal as a transparent and non-political tool. That is our goal - to punish the perpetrators," - the minister stressed.


"Russia is now saying that the court is not the time, because there is no final report. Instead, we say that the court is still needed. And if Russia blocks the resolution, we can go our separate ways. And when, in October, will be presented to the final report, which then will speak Russian? Therefore, the position of Russia, I will not describe; it is as it is. They're trying to delay some decisions or someone confuse "- Klimkin said.

"We work as a team. We were the authors of this idea - to go along with the idea of ​​creating a tribunal - not only with the Dutch, the Australians, but also with the Malaysians and the Belgians. On Saturday (July 18) was a conversation between the Foreign Ministers of these countries: all They confirmed that they are ready to go to the end, that will be used all the levers. We are now trying to attract the support of all (UN members), you've seen - there are many applications. That is, if Russia blocks the resolution, we can solve the problem otherwise, "- said the head of the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry.
