Zelensky says Ukrainians working closely with Canadian counterparts in Iran
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said experts and diplomats from his country are working closely with their Canadian counterparts in Tehran after Iran admitted it accidentally shot down a Ukrainian airliner.
"Our Ukrainian experts and diplomats are ready to collaborate closely with our Canadian counterparts in Tehran. I confirmed this to @JustinTrudeau once more. We will also coordinate efforts to punish those responsible for this tragedy," Zelensky wrote on Twitter.
Iran initially dismissed Western claims it was brought down by a missile before admitting it on Saturday.
The blunder and the official response has so far sparked four consecutive nights of protests.
