Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif has responded to the complaint about the Ukrainian plane crash, calling it groundless, APA reports citing Sputnik.

A Kiev-bound Boeing belonging to Ukraine International Airlines crashed on 8 January, just minutes after taking off from Tehran's Imam Khomeini International Airport.

Note that Canadian lawyers previously submitted a class-action lawsuit on behalf of the victims of the crash, demanding $1.1 billion in compensation from the Islamic Republic.
