Russia will not probe Prigozhin plane crash under international rules

Russia has informed Brazil's aircraft investigation authority that it will not probe the crash of the Brazilian-made Embraer (EMBR3.SA) jet that killed mercenary boss Yevgeny Prigozhin under international rules "at the moment", the Brazilian agency told Reuters on Tuesday.

... Brazil's Center for Research and Prevention of Aeronautical Accidents (CENIPA), in the interests of improving aviation safety, had said it would join a Russian-led investigation if it were invited and the probe held under international rules.

According to the Montreal-based United Nations International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), the flight from Moscow with a destination of St Petersburg was domestic, so it is not subject to international rules known throughout the industry by their legal name "Annex 13."

"They are not obliged, only recommended to do that," CENIPA head Air Brigadier Marcelo Moreno told Reuters after the agency sent an email last week asking Russia whether it would open such a probe.

"But if they say they’ll open the investigation and invite Brazil we will participate from afar."

...CENIPA and manufacturer Embraer want to prevent future accidents but face challenges in getting information from the investigation due to sanctions on Russia and Moscow's reluctance to allow outside scrutiny.

Some 802 Embraer regional jets with 37 to 50 seats, built on the same platform as the Legacy 600 corporate aircraft, are in service, underscoring Brazilian interest in the probe.

Embraer declined comment.

---- "not obliged, only recommended"

Sounds like the same turn of phrase used in the mRNA injections, "mandated" then not, and with Biden as "he suggested the possibility of mandating this new vaccine for all individuals, regardless of their prior vaccination status."

"not obliged, only recommended" and then "mandated" -- excepting international law is reported to say, "not obliged, only recommended." If only Biden were in charge....

“hmmm..Russia doesn’t want to allow open investigation....”

No surprise. Russia also objected to the investigation into the downing of Malaysian Airline Flight MH-17, which was shot down by pro-Russia separatists using Russian-supplied weaponry. Russia also objected to any independent investigation into the 2010 crash near Smolensk, Russia of a Polish Air Force plane that killed the Polish president along with other Polish officials.

Russia will permit an international investigation of Prigozhin’s plane crase, right after it returns the plane of Polish president Kaczynski, the equivalent of Air Force One, to Poland. Both planes crashed for the same reason, SAM attack.

What is there to investigate.
Was he killed by a missile or a bomb? Who cares?

“Putin doesn’t participate in the liberal world order.”

Considering the record of the ‘International Community’ in being fair to Russia (think Bucha, for example), can you blame him?

General SVR

General SVR, August 30:
A man resembling Russian President Vladimir Putin met with the director of the Federal Bailiff Service, Chief Bailiff of the Russian Federation Dmitry Aristov. The meeting took place in a calm atmosphere.

The President’s doppelgänger knows perfectly well that in the forthcoming wave of mobilization the “debtors” must play almost a decisive role, and it is they who will be the first to be drafted.

Putin has long agreed on all plans for the next stage of mobilization, and he was one of the authors of this idea of ​​calling debtors to war.

And we are talking not only about men, out of the total number of women falling under the new wave, 15%, and if in the first wave it was decided to abandon such plans, now they are more resolute about this.

Dmitry Aristov did an excellent job providing a “resource base” for the second wave of mobilization and was awarded an audience with the “President”.

Yesterday morning, Russian President Vladimir Putin complained of feeling unwell and doctors were urgently called to him. After the examination and the medication he took, he felt a little better, but in the first half of the day he refused to participate in a closed meeting and did not accept reports.

Late in the evening, the President was informed about the “special operation” to bury “Prigozhin” and Prigozhin’s deputy in the PMC Vagner Chekalov.

The President was informed that everything went according to the secret plan approved in the morning and there were no problems with its implementation.

Putin asked about the details and was pleased with what he heard.

Immediately after the report, the President ordered to contact the “deceased” via video link, which was done within 15 minutes.

——> Prigozhin, alive and well, while in one overseas country, had a twenty-minute conversation with Putin, in which they once again and finally discussed the conditions for the redistribution of property and spheres of influence, as well as the transfer of cases for all types of activities of PMC Wagner and structures of Yevgeny Prigozhin. <——

The President and former head of Wagner PMC confirmed their earlier commitments.

Judging by the warm end of the conversation, both were satisfied with the ending of the common story.

We will publish more information about the terms of the deal between Putin and Prigozhin soon in our channel.

Putin doesn’t want anyone to investigate his murders.

He wants to create the New World Order.

you support Putin and his New World Order, right?
