The United Nation’s aviation council has ruled Russia<\/a> was responsible for the downing of a Malaysian aeroplane over Ukraine<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Flight MH17 was heading to Kuala Lumpur from Amsterdam when it was shot down by a Russian surface-to-air missile while flying over eastern Ukraine<\/a> in 2014.<\/p>\n

The strike killed all 298 passengers and crew. Among the victims were 196 Dutch citizens as well as 38 Australian nationals and residents.<\/p>\n

Australia and The Netherlands said the Council of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) will consider what form of reparation is now in order.<\/p>\n

Australia\u2019s Foreign Minister Penny Wong said: “We call upon Russia<\/a> to finally face up to its responsibility for this horrific act of violence and make reparations for its egregious conduct, as required under international law.”<\/p>\n

Dutch Foreign Minister Caspar Veldkamp said: “This decision also sends a clear message to the international community: states cannot violate international law with impunity.”<\/p>\n

The ICAO said in a statement on Monday evening: “The Russian Federation failed to uphold its obligations under international air law in the 2014 downing of Malaysia Airlines Flight MH17.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The United Nation’s aviation council has ruled Russia was responsible for the downing of a Malaysian aeroplane over…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":97664,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7654],"tags":[2000,299,332,21157,7661,45468,45469,657,333,658],"class_list":{"0":"post-97663","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-ukraine","8":"tag-eu","9":"tag-europe","10":"tag-russia","11":"tag-russia-ukraine-war-update","12":"tag-russia-ukraine-war","13":"tag-russia-ukraine-war-latest","14":"tag-russia-ukraine-war-news","15":"tag-ukraine","16":"tag-vladimir-putin","17":"tag-volodymyr-zelensky"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114499784736487629","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/97663","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=97663"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/97663\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/97664"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=97663"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=97663"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=97663"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
