US President Barack Obama in a press conference criticized Russia for the shooting down incident of the Malaysian airliner.
Evidence shows the plane was shot down by a pro-Russian separatists’ missile, he said. These separatists are constantly receiving aid from Russia. These supplies include anti-air missiles, he continued, adding one cannot deny the truth. Russia has time and again refrained from measures to deescalating tensions, he went on, saying we call on Russia to take on a path of peace in Ukraine but to this day it has not done so and instead it has supported the separatists.
