Foreign Minister of CanadaChrystia Freeland said this in the statement on the MH17 investigation.
"The JIT investigation concluded that the missile used to bring down Malaysian Airlines Flight MH17 came from the 53rd Anti-aircraft Missile Brigade of the Russian Armed Forces, based near Kursk, Russia. We call on Russia to urgently address these conclusions and to cooperate fully with the JIT," Freeland said.
'Canada continues to urge other countries to defend a rules-based international order in which those responsible for the downing of Flight MH17 are held accountable for their actions in line with international standards.
