Mr. Champagne spoke after a meeting at the Canadian High Commission with foreign ministers from Britain, Ukraine, Sweden and Afghanistan. They make up the International Coordination and Response Group for families of the victims of Ukraine International Airlines Flight 752, which was shot down by the Iranian military on Jan. 8 shortly after taking off from Tehran airport. All of the 176 people on board died including 57 Canadians, 11 Ukrainians, 10 Swedes, four Britons and four Afghans.
When asked what pressure the group could exert if Iran failed to meet the demands of the five countries, Mr. Champagne said; “It’s called the international community. The eyes of the international community are on Iran today.”
Ah just long enough for people to forget and move on. Well played. Too bad there wasn’t a video and an admission of guilt to speed things along.
