Putin vetoes MH17 tribunal

RUSSIA has shot down the hopes of MH17 victims’ families that they were poised to get justice.

In New York overnight, Russia vetoed a move to prosecute the rebels - widely believed to be Russian-backed - who killed 298 people, including 39 Australians.

The move immediately sparked international outrage and condemnation.

Foreign Minister Julie Bishop has been working with other affected nations to convince the United Nations Security Council to establish an international criminal tribunal to prosecute those responsible.

She said loved ones became the victims of an atrocity by “a cruel twist of fate” and that it was vital for their families to see the killers held to account.

Russia’s veto compounded that atrocity, she said, but the perpetrators would “not be allowed to evade justice”.
