On July 17, 2014, an aggressor state russia brought down the passenger plane Malaysia Airlines Flight MH17 from Amsterdam to Kuala-Lumpur, having employed a russian BUK surface-to-air missile.
In 9th anniversary of MH17 disaster, we commemorate 298 passengers and crew members, who were killed by russia.
If the war had not been started by russia, the citizens of the Netherlands, Malaysia, Australia, Indonesia, Great Britain, Belgium, Germany, the Philippines, Canada and New Zealand could have lived – just like the Ukrainians, who were killed for the nine years of aggression.
The Hague District Court has already announced the sentence to the perpetrators of the crime and recorded the circumstances of its commission. However, the story should not end there - moscow still continues its deadly policy: mass killings of civilians, abduction and deportation of Ukrainian children, ecocide as a result of blowing up the Kakhovka HPP, irresponsible nuclear blackmail.
Crazy behavior, disregard for all norms of international law and universal human virtues prove that today's russia is a problem for the whole world. Therefore, to paralyze the aggressor and to bring him to a just punishment should be a matter of honour for all free nations.
The Defence Intelligence of Ukraine, whose employees made efforts to gather evidences of russia’s involvement in the downing of Boeing, reminds that moscow cannot avoid responsibility for this war crime, as well as for thousands of other terrible actions.
