At Eur Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) for the #MH17 hearing on admissibility and jurisdiction. The cases of #Ukraine v #Russia and #Netherlands v Russia are joined and discussed together today. Things are heating up between UKR and RUS: now that’ll be fought out in court as well. 
Placement sheet of ECtHR’s judges and delegations/counsel of today’s #MH17 oral hearing. Hearing will discuss admissibility & jurisdiction: exhausting domestic remedies, 6month rule and Art 1 ECHR: was RUS active (with BUK crew or effective control) in UKR at time of downing MH17
RUS starts with arguing ECtHR should reject cases because no extra-territorial jurisdiction: it occurred in UKR; RUS had no effective control over the area. RUS points to financial support to UKR and suggests that this instead is effective control by Western states there. #MH17
