That being said, the Ukrainian government isn't the one denying the OCSE access to the wreckage, in fact, if it's got any sense at all and if it does want the west engaging war with Russia then it will be as open and as transparent as possible in order to deny the Russians any ammunition to use against them.

So far the pro-Russian forces are not doing themselves any favours.
