AZERBAIJAN president Ilham Aliyev confirmed the passenger plane that crashed killing 38 people was shot down by Russia.
Aliyev made the blistering public statement after a phone call with Vladimir Putin in which the tyrant apologised for the disaster.
He confirmed the plane had been jammed by electronic warfare weapons before being shot at by the Russians.
Aliyev raged he wanted Russia to accept it was guilty of downing the plane and punish those responsible for fatally damaging the aircraft.
Speaking on state TV, he said: "Unfortunately, in the first three days we heard only absurd versions from Russia.
"We witnessed clear attempts to cover up the matter."

It comes after shamed Putin made a mealy-mouthed apology over the crash in a call with Aliyev.
But despite apologising, Vlad continued to dodge taking responsibility for the disaster.
He instead was merely sorry it happened in his airspace.
