We know how dangerous that can be. Let's not forget Russia shooting down a Korean airline in 1983 and a Malaysian airline in 2014. Did Russia ever say "sorry!" or "we'll pay!" - actually, no.

To be fair that plane intruded Russian airspace without authorization because they switched their navigation mode to attitude control instead of internal reference. But you bet Russia if presented with a suspected spy plane, they will actually shoot it down

This event also prompted the US government to release the use of GPS to civilian

You are incorrect. Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 was shot down by pro-Russian forces in 2014.

298 people died.

Sorry, but you’ve moved the goal posts to be “pro Russian forces” instead of Russia. Tell the truth and be honest.

Hu? He's obviously talking about https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malaysia_Airlines_Flight_17 not MH370

Nice try with the racism deflection! A tad too obvious, but nice try!

How is it obvious? It’s like saying the New Zealanders (pro American forces) used agent orange against children in Vietnam.

Be honest. No need to lie. Justice is already in our side. Slava Ukraine.

The Russian Federation is the legal successor to the Soviet Union, so they were right about that.

The BUK that shot down Malaysia 370 was supplied by Russia to troops that were fighting on Russian orders, with Russian personnel among them and with direct support from the Kremlin. That goalpost has been moved a couple of centimeters, if at all.

Legal smeagol, let’s be honest. And centimeters are centimeters, trust me. I’m a jelqer. Be honest! Ukraine Slava!

I'm honest.

Dishonest is claiming that the Russians didn't have their finger on the trigger when MH370 was shot down.

It's also dishonest to claim that the USSR and the RF are two different entities. Heck, even Putin would dispute that!

Wrong. You are just making stuff up. It’s just like when it was reported about Russians paying for bounties in US soldiers in Afghanistan. Everyone believed it and reported it because, “it’s ok to be racist against Russians.”

As for USSR and Russia I don’t agree with Putin on pretty much everything, so appealing to your daddy won’t do any good with me!

Be honest. Let’s kick their asses, but let’s make sure it’s via truth and not assumptions with no proof! (That rhymed making it double effective! Slava Ukraine. 🇺🇦

Then, when we win, let’s help them build back better, too. So this never ever happens again. Stop the hate. Live in truth.

You're insinuating that Putin's "my daddy", but are following the Russian propaganda's talking points to the letter, e.g. with the "anti-russian racism" bit.

Care to explain where I'm wrong? Where did the BUK come from?

Yep, if someone wants Ukraine to win with truth and not lies, downvote them into oblivion and say they are a Russian bot. A winning formula. Go team!
