Eight years ago, Azerbaijan’s President Ilham Aliyev promptly apologized to Russia after the helicopter incident. Now, Azerbaijan seeks a similar acknowledgment from Russia regarding the recent plane crash, reflecting a significant shift in expectations.
Political scientist Farhad Mammadov pointed out that Azerbaijan now demands formal responsibility and compensation from Russia, highlighting the anger and disappointment in the aftermath of the catastrophic crash.
After the plane crash that left 38 dead, Azerbaijan's President Aliyev is insisting that Russia take responsibility, a stark contrast to the humility shown by his government in 2020.
While Putin apologized for the tragic incident involving the Azerbaijan plane, he deflected blame, implicating Ukrainian drones instead of taking accountability, straining relations with Azerbaijan.
