IAN Greenhalgh is spot on with his letter of July 28, regarding the trouble in the Ukraine.
The downing of flight MH17 was a terrible thing to happen and my heart goes out to the families and friends of all who lost their lives needlessly.
However, the sheer hypocrisy of the USA and the EU is disgusting, trying to score cheap political points out of this terrible loss of life.
The main aggressor in the Ukraine is not Russia, but the EU and the USA.
They are the ones who started and funded the so-called protesters who were responsible for several deaths and the overthrow of a democratically elected government.
