克里姆林宫周一报导，土耳其总统向俄罗斯总统发出信息，对去年击落俄罗斯飞机一事表示对不起。俄罗斯总统称此事件是背叛般刺在背后。土耳其总统对遇难飞行员家庭表达了同情和深切哀悼，并请求原谅。

土耳其已经在对杀害俄罗斯飞行员的一名土耳其公民进行调查。

据土耳其媒体报导，土耳其总统发言人称，土耳其总统对击落飞机一事深表后悔。对遇害飞行员家属称，他本人和他们一起承担痛苦，并表示哀悼。希望他们能够原谅。

The Kremlin reported Monday Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan sent a message to Russian President Vladimir Putin saying "I am sorry" for the downing of a Russian jet last November, an incident Putin had called a "treacherous stab in the back."

Erdogan expressed his "sympathy and deep condolences" to the family of the killed pilot and "asked to be forgiven," Putin's spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters.

The letter added that Turkish authorities were conducting a probe against a Turkish citizen who allegedly shot and killed the plane's pilot as he was descending by parachute, the Kremlin added. The plane's co-pilot survived and was rescued, but a Russian marine was killed by militants during the rescue mission near the border.

Erdogan spokesman, Ibrahim Kalin, said, according to Turkey's state-run Anadolu news agency, that the Turkish leader expressed his deep regret: "In the letter, the president stated that he would like to inform the family of the deceased Russian pilot that I share their pain and to offer my condolences to them. May they excuse us."

Turkey had previously claimed two of its F-16s shot down the Russian Su-24 bomber because it violated Turkish airspace near the Syrian border and failed to heed warnings to turn around. The co-pilot told Russian media he never received such warnings.

The Russians responded by halting package tours to Turkey, banning most agricultural imports from Turkey and introducing other measures restricting bilateral trade. Before the plane's downing, Russia had been the largest destination for Turkish exports, mostly textile and food, and also the biggest source of Turkish imports.
