Russia’s UN draft on MH17 crash does not call for tribunal

Russia said earlier this month it opposed a draft submitted by Malaysia on behalf of the five countries that would establish an international tribunal.

The rival Russian draft resolution, obtained Monday by The Associated Press, expresses concern at the delay in completing the investigation and insists on “just and equal access” to all materials from the probe by all interested states.

Controversy continues over who downed the plane, traveling from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur, killing all 298 people on board.
