Penny Wong has accused the Russian president, Vladimir Putin, of “harbouring murderers”, warning that the world will not forget a court verdict that Russia and two of its nationals were responsible for the downing of MH17.
The Australian foreign minister made the remarks on Friday after a Dutch court found Russians Igor Girkin and Sergey Dubinskiy and Ukrainian Leonid Kharchenko guilty of bringing down the plane and the murder of everyone onboard.
