Azerbaijan president blames Russia for shooting down plane on Christmas Day
Briefly

Azerbaijan's President Ilham Aliyev stated that the Azerbaijani airliner crash was due to being shot down by Russia's fire, albeit unintentionally, causing outrage and demands for accountability.
Aliyev expressed disappointment over Russia's delayed response, accusing officials of offering 'delirious versions' instead of clarity following the crash that killed 38 people.
In demanding justice, Aliyev listed three conditions for Russia: an apology, admission of guilt, and punishment of those responsible, highlighting the seriousness of the incident.
While acknowledging Putin's apology as a step forward, Aliyev emphasized the need for a thorough investigation by international experts rather than reliance on Russia's overseen investigations.
