CEO of the French Total oil and gas company Christophe de Margerie died in a plane crash in Moscow's Vnukovo Airport two years ago.

MOSCOW (Sputnik) — France and the Netherlands do not have objections to the conclusions of the Interstate Aviation Committee (IAC) on the 2014 crash of former CEO of the French Total oil and gas company Christophe de Margerie's jet in Moscow, IAC said in a statement on Thursday.

"The investigation of the fatal accident involving the Falcon 50 EX F-GLSA aircraft that occurred on 20.10.2014 at Vnukovo Airport (Moscow) has been completed… The Bureau d’Enquêtes et d’Analyse pour la sécurité de l’aviation civile (BEA) and the Dutch Safety Board (DSB) that participated in the accident investigation do not have any comments on the Final Report," the statement read.

The Final Report will be published on the IAC's website once technical procedures have been completed.

De Margerie died overnight into 21, 2014, when his business jet crashed in Moscow’s Vnukovo airport. De Margerie was the only passenger on board the aircraft in addition to three French crew members who also died in the crash.

The Russian prosecutor's office has brought charges against snowplow driver Vladimir Martynenko, whose vehicle hit against the plane during takeoff, provoking the crash, as well as senior shift engineer Vladimir Ledenev and air traffic controllers Roman Dunaev, Aleksander Kruglov and Nadezhda Arkhipova.
