IF YOU SHOT DOWN MH17 YOU'D WANT TO KEEP IT SECRET, YEAH?

If you'd shot down MH17 you'd want to keep it secret, yeah?

Well they tried.

On August 7th, three weeks after Malaysian Airlines flight MH17 was shot down over East Ukraine, a secret agreement was signed between the Netherlands, Belgium, Australia and Ukraine about the investigation into the disaster. The Dutch Public Prosecution Service was to lead the investigation, as two-thirds of the victims had the Dutch nationality.

Details about this secret agreement were revealed on August 29th by Eurojust. There appears to be a non-disclosure agreement in which one of the four countries has the power to veto the publication of results of the investigation. It appears that Malaysia also participated in the talks about forming a joint investigation team (JIT), but refused to sign the agreement. The result is that Malaysia now is only part of the technical investigation team, and not part of the team behind the criminal probe.

And just to make sure I have my history correct: we did fight WW2 to destroy the Nazis, not to not-so-secretly support them later as they killed 6000 civilians of East Ukraine fighting that Nazism?

My grandfathers, possibly yours too, invaded France on 6th June 1944, for that?
