First Deputy Permanent Representative to the UN Dmitry Polyansky spoke at the meeting on behalf of Russia.
Polyanskyy said that Western military equipment might be involved in the liquidation of the plane with Ukrainian prisoners of war. In his opinion, it could have been either the US Patriot or the German IRIS-T.
The diplomat pointed out that if the origin of the missile systems was confirmed, the West would become a direct accomplice in a criminal military-terrorist action.
Dmitry Polyansky also promised to punish those responsible for the crash of IL-76 on behalf of the Russian leadership.
Earlier, RuNews reported that Polyanskyy assessed the statement by the Ukrainian deputy ambassador to the UN, Kristina Gayovyshyn, as delusional.
