Iran must compensate crash victims' families, Canada-led group agrees

That's one of five elements in an agreement coming out of a meeting Canada hosted in London today, with representatives from Britain, Sweden, Afghanistan and Ukraine.

The participating countries are also calling for Iran to respect families' wishes on repatriating the remains of the 176 people killed when the plane came down, full access for consular officials and investigators, and an independent and credible criminal investigation. Foreign Affairs Minister Francois-Philippe Champagne says the countries whose citizens died are judging Iran's co-operation day by day.Minister of Foreign Affairs Francois-Philippe Champagne, right, and Dominic Raab the United Kingdom’s Foreign Secretary and First Secretary of State speak to reporters following a meeting in Montreal, Thursday, January 9, 2020.

The cheque’s in the mail

Perhaps there was someone on that plane that was being targeted.. The plane was intentionally shot down. Now saying it was accidental. Interfering with the crash site, bulldoze it right away... Sounds suspicious

Not a Crash

Better them than us

Were the families of the Malaysian aircraft compensated? CanadianPM cdnpoli

Does Iran recognize dual citizenship? Do they recognize the victims as Canadians or as Iranians?

Lol... yeah. What are you going to do if they don't? They are already harassing the victim's families.

CTVAtlantic Canada has got to keep their nose out of this.Why are we involved?

It wasn't a crash... It was shot down..

Cant see Canada enforcing this at all.

But does Iran agree? If not, what can be done? Nothing! There is very little left to hit with sanctions. We don’t trade with Iran. Facebook and Twitter are the next way to exert pressure.

They already said days ago they were? Don’t you follow the news? If I remember they said 3 Billion.

as we speak Iran is either shaking in their boots or rolling on the floor with laughter my money is on the latter

Freeze the top evil leaders of the Islamic Republic of Iran overseas bank accounts.

WTF you think Iran cares

Compensation varies between countries and EU and others are limited to 10000 per person unlike USA

Of course...but how to enforce? Magnitsky?

And they are.

QUEBEC'S most favorite word in English COMPENSATION !!!

A Trudeau lead Canadian government agrees with what other countries are enforcing

Didn’t Justin tell us it was trumps fault? It’s not but that’s a pretty quick about face.

Yeah! Get some of those Obama dollars out pay these poor people, we know you got billions in cash from Barry.

So Iran killed these innocent people in cold blood, and now refuses to hand over their bodies Where's the UN and Trump? Iran is fishing for excuses to aggravate Canada?! What a tragedy for Canada and these victim's families 😩! Canada now has an exemption not to go to war
