“From the very first day we understand that sooner or later we will have to go to the UN court,” UNIAN quotes him.

Yenin added that for this Kiev will need a serious legal team.

“And you can force the Iranian side to agree to a pre-trial settlement only by forming an appropriate evidence base. The stronger the base, the faster the chances of reaching an agreement, ”the deputy minister said.

Earlier, Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky said that Ukraine would appeal to international courts if Iran did not fulfill its obligations regarding the situation with the crash of Boeing in Tehran.

According to him, we are talking about providing Kiev with black boxes and compensation for damage.

On January 8, a plane crash occurred in Tehran, which killed 176 people. Iran acknowledged that the Iranian air defense system mistakenly shot down a passenger plane of Ukraine International Airlines, mistaking it for a cruise missile.

As Iranian leader Hassan Rouhani noted, the Iranian armed forces were put on full alert to protect themselves from possible attacks by the United States, "which, unfortunately, led to this terrible disaster."
