MH17 tribunal to be established regardless of Russia's plans - Ukraine's Representative to UN

A series of countries, including Ukraine, are committed to setting up the tribunal to punish those responsible for the MH17 crash in Donbas.
This was announced by Permanent Representative of Ukraine to the UN Yuriy Sergeyev, TSN reports.
"We expect Russia to veto the draft resolution, but it cannot veto the right of the countries, whose citizens were killed in the crash, to demand punishment for those responsible. I am confident that the tribunal will be approved, even if not by the UN Security Council," he said.
The Ukraine's Permanent Representative to the UN for tactical reasons has not revealed how 14 members of the UN Security will vote. However, he has noted that the majority of them support the resolution on tribunal establishment as it has nothing to do with politics, just a desire of the relatives to know who is guilty of the death of their loved ones.
