Ivanov was today quoted by Interfax as saying that Moscow has apologized repeatedly for the crash on 15 September of an Su-27 warplane en route from St. Petersburg to the Russian exclave of Kaliningrad.
But he said Vilnius is politicizing the crash -- behavior he called "ridiculous and naive."
The pilot of the jet fighter ejected safely and is in Lithuanian custody pending the conclusion of the investigation.
