Our previous investigation revealed it was Russian Soldiers who downed Malaysia Airlines flight MH17 and tried to destroy the evidence and flight recorders before anyone else was allowed on the scene.

Now the world knows Putin had a phone call that gave the order to strike Malaysia Airlines flight MH17 with a Russian missle also supplied by Putin.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy accused Russia late Thursday of lying.  “A very important decision was adopted today in the Netherlands. Russia lied a lot about this catastrophe, but nevertheless, the key facts were established,” Zelenskyy said on Telegram following a Dutch court’s ruling in the case.

The court on Thursday found three men guilty of murder for taking part in the downing of the passenger flight and sentenced them to life in prison in absentia, while a fourth suspect was acquitted.

Highlighting the importance of the verdict, he said: “When Russia compensates for all the damage caused by Russian aggression, it will be a very solid foundation for a lasting peace.”

Russian nationals Sergey Dubinskiy and Igor Girkin, as well as a Ukrainian, Leonid Kharchenko, were found guilty of causing the crash that killed 298 civilians. Another Russian, Oleg Pulatov, was acquitted of all charges.

The court called the proven charges “so severe that it holds that only the highest possible prison sentence would be appropriate.”

At the time of the attack, Girkin, a former Russian intelligence official, was defense minister and commander of the armed forces of the self-proclaimed Moscow-backed Donetsk People’s Republic.

Kharchenko was the commander of a pro-Russia separatist combat unit and took orders directly from Dubinskiy, according to the prosecutors.

The trial officially began March 9, 2020.​​​​​​​

Putin has diplomatic immunity while he serves as acting president, but when he is not longer president, then charges can be filed on him.
