TEN
QUESTIONS FOR THE UKRAINIAN AUTHORITIES
Immediately
after the tragedy, the Ukrainian authorities, naturally, blamed it
on the self-defense forces. What are these accusations based
on?
Can
Kiev explain in detail how it uses Buk
missile launchers in
the conflict zone? And why were these systems deployed there
in the first place, seeing as the self-defense forces don’t have
any planes?
Why
are the Ukrainian authorities not doing anything to set up
an international
commission?
When will such a commission begin its work?
4.
Would the Ukrainian Armed Forces be willing to let international
investigators see the inventory of their air-to-air and
surface-to-air missiles, including those used in SAM launchers?
5.
Will the international commission have access to tracking data from
reliable sources regarding the movements of Ukrainian warplanes on
the day of the tragedy?
Why
did Ukrainian air traffic controllers allow the plane to deviate
from the regular route to
the north, towards “the
anti-terrorist operation zone”?
Why
was airspace over the warzone not closed
for civilian flights,
especially since the area was not entirely covered by radar
navigation systems?
8.
How can official Kiev comment on reports in the social media,
allegedly by a Spanish air traffic controller who works in Ukraine,
that there were two Ukrainian military planes flying alongside the
Boeing 777 over Ukrainian territory?
9.
Why did Ukraine’s Security Service start working with the
recordings of communications between Ukrainian air traffic
controllers and the Boeing crew and with the data storage systems
from Ukrainian radars without waiting for international
investigators?
10.
What lessons has Ukraine learned from a similar
incident in
2001, when a Russian Tu-154 crashed into the Black Sea? Back then,
the Ukrainian authorities denied any involvement on the part of
Ukraine’s Armed Forces until irrefutable evidence proved official
Kiev to be guilty.
