The US admitted that they shot down Iran Air Flight 655 within hours and issued an apology.
Russia still denies Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 years later.
This is a bad comparison.
- FpUser 5y agoThere was settlement. No official apology. The US "expressed regret" you can read about it on Wikipedia. The USS Vincente shot down civilian aircraft that was transmitting whatever signal it was required to be recognized as civilian. Yes it was an accident. They did not have it as their mission to down passenger airliner.
