OTTAWA/EDMONTON, Alberta - The Canadian government, under pressure at home to be tougher on Iran over intelligence reports it shot down a passenger jet, on Friday reiterated calls for a full probe into the disaster and warned Tehran that “the world is watching”.
“I think transparency is what the international community is looking for now,” he told a news conference. The prime minister “completely misses the point” when he does not condemn the Iranian government, said Ali Ashtari, 39, a data scientist from Toronto who lost a friend in the crash. Trudeau said Ottawa had demanded Canadian access to Iran to provide consular services, identify victims and participate in the crash investigation.Ukraine president says spoke with Canada's Trudeau, agreed need for objective probe of plane crash
Trudeau sidestepped questions on Thursday as to whether the United States should be held at least partially responsible given that Iran’s attack on U.S. forces was in retaliation for a U.S. drone strike that killed Qassem Soleimani, former Quds Force leader. Relations between Trudeau and U.S. President Donald Trump are formal at best, with Trudeau last month caught on camera joking about Trump, and the president calling him “two-faced”.
