Russia creates mist, which is not productive. That says Koenders about Russian scenarios for the disaster with the MH17 and criticized the investigation by the Dutch Safety Board. "I would note that this is the research objective, transparent and neutral is done."

He believes it is not right that Russian companies and state institutions on the day of the presentation remote names of the OVV. "They have worked it themselves, if you come up with alternative theories, I find that quite a bit of fog lift. Also towards victims is important that your commitment of the organization that was about the investigation," said the minister of Foreign Affairs.

A few hours before the presentation of the OVV, the Russian rocket builder Buk a press conference in which the conclusions of the Research Council were contradicted. The company also claimed that the missile was fired from territory through Ukraine was controlled area.

Trial

Koenders is confident that it will come to judge the perpetrators. OVV-chairman Joustra said this morning that this is complicated. According Joustra are "different countries are not eager to deliver at all people." As an example, he mentioned Russia.

Koenders will not go into the question of guilt. "That is up to the Public Prosecutor. They do this independently, and that's a good thing."

Koenders and Minister Rutte say they have had no contact with their Russian counterparts about the alternative theories.
