Tears for the MH17 crash victims: Dutch royals and grieving relatives watch as first bodies arrive back in Holland in dignified ceremony that shames Russia​

Bodies of around 200 international victims of the MH17 plane massacre have arrived in Eindhoven, Netherlands

Aircraft, which left Ukraine this morning, were greeted by grieving relatives and members of the Dutch royal family

Torturous identification will now take place, which officials have warned is likely to take several months to complete
There is concern over the total number of bodies that have been released by pro-Russian rebels in east Ukraine
Separatists claim they placed 282 complete corpses and body parts from 16 others on board refrigerated morgue train
But Dutch officials claim they counted only 200 victims, meaning a third of MH17's passengers may still be missing
Today MH17's black boxes were delivered to the Air Accidents Investigation Branch base in Farnborough, Hampshire
Dutch air safety board said cockpit voice recorder successfully downloaded and contained 'valid data from the flight'

The first bodies of those killed in the MH17 crash have arrived in the Netherlands to be greeted by grieving relatives and the Dutch royal family. The remains of around 40 international victims of the Malaysia Airlines tragedy left Ukraine's Kharkiv airport on two military planes earlier today, ahead of a painstaking identification process which is expected to take several months.

The dignified reception at Eindhoven airport is in stark contrast to the treatment of the victims' remains in eastern Ukraine in the days after the crash, where pro-Russian rebels left corpses to decay in the summer heat in body bags dumped around the crash site. Among those attending the solemn ceremony were King Willem-Alexander and Queen Maxima of the Netherlands, who held on to each other's hands as the bodies were removed from the transporter aircraft. At several points the Dutch Queen was seen wiping tears from her face.

Dutch call for Putin's daughter to be deported after it is discovered she lives in Holland with her boyfriend: Ukrainians also plan protest outside her apartment

• Russian leader's daughter, Maria, lives in The Hague with her Dutch partner
• Nine residents of the city were among the 193 Dutch citizens killed in crash
• Many blame Putin for supporting Ukrainian rebels accused of downing MH17
• Anti-Putin activists have now called for protests outside daughter's house
• Local politician calls for her to be deported, but later apologises

Her father has been blamed by many for the death of 193 Dutch citizens.So for Maria Putin, who lives in a smart suburb of The Hague, relations with her neighbours must be more than a little strained right now. The 28-year-old is reported to have resided in the Netherlands for several years with Dutch partner Jorrit Faassen, 34, an executive for a Russian consultancy firm. He owns a two-storey penthouse apartment at the top of a luxury high-security block in Voorschoten, next to an idyllic canal.

Yesterday, anti-Putin activists from around the world were posting the address on Twitter and urging Dutch people to set up a protest outside. One wrote: ‘Dear Dutch ppl! If you want to visit Putin’s daughter, [this is the] address.’
Another posted: ‘Dutch people can express their feelings about #MH17. Ask for Maria Putin (Faassen).’ Among the Dutch victims were nine residents of The Hague, including a family of four, a local artist and a newly-married couple on their honeymoon.

There was also 17-year-old schoolgirl Elsemiek de Borst, whose heartbroken father Hans de Borst has spoken out about Putin’s involvement. He said: ‘Maria Putin may have nothing to do with this. ‘However, her father is very powerful and I think he had the power to send some Russian military forces to this crash site to guard the victims over the last few days. Despite this, he decided not to. ‘Mr Putin and other parties in this, I have reason to believe that one of them is the murderer of my child. ‘Maybe indirectly, maybe it was not the intention. But the separatists were able to obtain these weapons and that was the outcome.’

​

Putin is believed to have visited The Hague to see Maria and was spotted in a local supermarket. The mayor of the city of Hilversum, Pieter Broertjes, yesterday called for Ms Putin to be deported from the country in a radio interview.
He later apologised for his comments, saying the demands were 'not wise' but 'stemmed from a feeling of helplessness that many will recognise'. Maria is understood to divide her time between Russia and the Netherlands, with the couple remaining very much within Putin’s inner circle.

She appears to keep her distance from her neighbours and her father and his staff are said to keep a close protective watch over her. Putin is said to be so paranoid about her safety that he has not allowed her to be photographed as an adult in the Russian media and sent her to university under a different name. Her new enemies on social media will do little to ease Putin’s fears for her safety.


Last night, there was no answer at the buzzer of her apartment and her neighbours were reluctant to talk about her.
‘I’m sorry, I can’t help you,’ said one of the few to answer. ‘I don’t know who lives there and I don’t want to comment.’ Local residents have in the past claimed to have seen her father in the local supermarket, while one said they saw a blacked-out limousine in the underground car park. One ominously told a local reporter: ‘The family have something dangerous about them.’ Another said: ‘There are some things that it is better not to know.’

Maria is reported to have married Fassen in the summer of 2009, although there is no official record. He was a real estate specialist with Russian gas firm Gazprom before being appointed vice-president of Stroytransgaz, also Russian, in 2008, at the age of 28. According to land registry documents, a year later he began buying up property in Voorschoten. He bought the main apartment for a bargain price of £292,000 and now owns two other apartments in the same building. The apartments are now worth an estimated £545,000 each. The district where they live is aptly named the Krimwijk, meaning ‘Crimea district’.

His connection to the Putin family is thought to have served him well when his BMW was rammed by a Mercedes owned by Russian banker Matvei Oerin in 2010. Seven of Oerin’s bodyguards pulled Faassen out of his car and beat him up, but the banker was later prosecuted, jailed and stripped of the licenses for four of his five banks. Faassen left Stroytransgazin 2010, his last known job was as Deputy Chairman of the Board of Directors of ACO MEF-Audit, a consultancy firm. The apartment is a short drive away from The Hague’s City Hall, where grieving families and friends of the dead have been signing a book of condolences.​

Jamani tuache kusikiliza na kuamini yote yanayoandikwa.
Kwanza, kwenye vita yoyote kuna chanzo chake na watu wanachukua sides, Vita ya Uganda na Tz pia tulichukua upande wa against Amin na kuwasaidia rebels mpaka kuikomboa nchi. Mbona leo hatumtaji Nyerere kama tunavyomuita Putin. Same can be said on any conflict, local or international.
Kwa nini hatujiulizi ni nini kinafanya watu wa eastern Ukraine kutaka kujitenga? What is forcing people to distance them self with Kiev? Kwa mtu yeote aliyekaa ulaya miaka ya karibuni ataweza kuelezea juu ya Neo Nazis and the skin heads. Hii ndio hali iliyotawala western ukraine na wanataka sambaza kote. Please google and read: a. Neo Nazis in ukraine b. what happened to majority party in Ukrainian Parliament C. Right Sector d. the Odessa Massacre e. blacks in Ukraine just to name a few.
Believe me, if Putin wanted to take eastern part of Ukraine he would have done that. Crimea was something special populated with almost 92% of ethic Russians (annexed by Nikita Khrushchev) Please read: 1954 transfer of Crimea - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia literally speaking this was Russian populated region which in 1954 was given to Ukraine and now voting to rejoin Russia. All these years it was a special territory with autonomous jurisdiction. Please note: I AM NOT SUPPORTING THIS, BUT AS AN INSIDER I UNDERSTAND THE FEELING OF THE LOCALS.
lAST: hivi Malawi wakichukua Lake Nyasa sisi tutafanya nini? Ask yourselves, why Ukraine doesn't fight Russia over Crimea? You ask me and I will tell you. Good day
