Such as maintaining ways to pressure Russia via the courts and getting control over the runaway influence Ukraine&co hold over that institution.

We are way OT.. recent posts should be moved to a to be created "Russian politics" thread?

Agreed, this thread is supposed to be about Malaysian Airlines MH317.

I am not sure if there are Russians other than me on this forum. So it would be populated by misinformed foreighners.

I believe you are incorrect but can't say for sure what the actual number is so might I suggest you or someone else create a thread for the purpose of carrying the above discussion onward.

That is the whole idea of political threads.. and you will then have to sort out those.. misinformations. Why not turn the tables. :03:

I did not have much knowledge about British or US politics (nor do i now ahem), but we all chime in to ask, claim and discuss, it is a good thing to learn more about other countries; much better than reading tabloid media or Facebook anyway.

ikalugin you can count on me - I am Russian as well :-) Pioneer's honest word.

:har:

That hasn't stop you and others from posting on the US and UK political threads.:03:

In case anyone missed it, one of the key suspects in the shoot down has been released by Ukraine over the objection of the Netherlands and handed back to Russia as part of the prisoner swap.

The chances that anyone will ever stand trial for this is becoming ever more remote.
