Brussels Attacks Show Need to Improve International Cooperation
MOSCOW (Sputnik) — A family member of one of the victims of recent Brussels suicide blasts intends to sue the international airport in Zaventem for gross negligence in protecting passengers, local media reported.

"Many questions remain unanswered. We know nothing… The Belgians killed my sister! I'm going to fight against it," Rasco Weah, the brother of 41-year-old Elita, who had died in the attacks, told the Dutch NRC broadcaster in an interview.

Weah, along with family members of other Dutch victims, is considering filing a joint legal complaint against the Brussels Airport.
