The evidence collected by Dutch journalists Stephen Beck and Michel Spekkers in their independent investigation of the MH17 case were confiscated by the Dutch authorities because the West doesn’t want the truth to be told. They were ordered to “shut their mouths”.

Disproof

The journalists findings were confiscated since they brought possible human remains with them. However, they have not been hindered from talking about it nor has any legal action been initiated against them. Also, although the journalists did complain about the police at the airport being "needlessly heavy-handed" they have not claimed that their freedom of speech has been impaired in any way. bit.ly/2jayUrP,

CNN constantly spreads fake news and propaganda, and Trump finally told them.

CNN will start a counter-strike against Trump by spreading liberal-globalist propaganda and starting a smear campaign against him.

Russia has not seized Ukrainian territory. Russia is not in Ukraine at all.

Disproof

Russia violated international law as well as key principles of the European security framework in illegally annexing the Autonomous Republic of Crimea and the City of Sevastopol. The European Union does not recognise and continues to strongly condemn this violation of international law, which remains a challenge to the international security order. This position is based on the UN Charter, which clearly states that the territory of a State cannot be acquired by another State resulting from the threat or use of force, as well as on the Helsinki Final Act in which the signatories declared their intention to respect the inviolability of frontiers and territorial integrity.

UNGA Resolution 68/262, which condemned Russia's illegal actions in Ukraine, was supported by 100 United Nations member states. Only 10 states opposed it.
