President Basescu: Terrorists, Russia equally guilty of airliner downing in Ukraine

President Traian Basescu on Monday declared an analysis revealed that the terrorist group that shot is guilty of last week's downing of the Malaysian Airlines plane in Ukraine, and Russia is equally guilty, because it provided experts and the necessary equipment for the attack.

'Our analysis shows that the terrorist group of eastern Ukraine that shot at the airliner is directly responsible. The Russian Federation, which provided experts and the necessary equipment, is equally a part of the terrorist act. I took note of the declaration of President Putin about avoiding the politicization of the event, but he cannot run and cannot hide from the responsibility of providing the experts and the equipment that hit the airplane,' Basescu stated at the Cotroceni Palace.
