    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I think I was entitled to a copy of that statement before it came to the House. Sen. Dullo said that it was shared, but she actually came, showed me and went away, for which I thank her. A number of aspects of that statement are fairly casual. For example, it says that the flight was aborted because the pilot decided to come back. A pilot is not in charge of an aircraft only when it is in air. He or she starts during the planning stage. He or she is the one who actually determines the route. Therefore, to say that they were not aware there was a warzone in Yemen and hostility between Ethiopia and Eritrea and so they returned, is to be very casual. Could the Vice-Chairperson go and come back with a more comprehensive answer? How come the plane carrying our President was planned to fly over an active warzone, knowing that only last year a Malaysia passenger aircraft was actually shot down in Ukraine for simply flying over an active warzone? Regarding what steps are being taken to ensure that, that kind of scenario does not happen again, it is very casual to say that nobody was found responsible. We want to know how that happened in the first place. You go all the way and then discover midair that there is war ahead. Lastly, to say that no disciplinary action was taken against anyone, is to suggest that the decision by the pilot to come back was again quite casual, if there was no problem.
