The head of CENIPA, Air Force Brigadier General Marcelo Moreno told the news agency reuters The agency emailed Russia asking if it would launch such an investigation.
Mr. Moreno said, “They are not bound and only recommended to do so. But if they launch an investigation and invite Brazil, we will participate remotely.”
Last week, 10 people, including Prigozhin, two representatives of his private Wagner military company and four bodyguards, were killed when an Embraer Legacy 600 crashed north of Moscow. Prigozhin died about two months after the failed uprising in Russia.
According to the news agency reuters, the Russian aviation authority is not required to agree with CENIPA. However, some investigators have previously suggested that Russia should do so because the US and other Western governments suspect the Kremlin was behind the August 23 crash. The Embraer Legacy 600 has a history of safe flying.
To date, the Kremlin has denied any involvement in the incident.
According to the United Nations International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), the crashed flight from Moscow to Saint Petersburg was a domestic flight and did not comply with international regulations known in the industry as its legal name. “Appendix 13”.
