The UK Government is clear that Russia should fully cooperate with all the investigations relating to the downing of flight MH17, and we welcome the work of the Council of Europe (CoE) and Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe. The UK Government supports the work of the Joint Investigation Team and the Dutch criminal trial in their efforts to deliver justice for the victims of this avoidable tragedy and answers for the families and friends of the victims, and to ensure those responsible are held to account for this appalling crime. The families of the 10 British victims remain foremost in our thoughts. We note that recommendations will go to the CoE Committee of Ministers in due course for appropriate review.
