Malaysian Defense Minister Arrives in Moscow


(MENAFN- QNA) Malaysian Defense Minister Hishammuddin Hussein arrived in Moscow, where on Wednesday he will hold a meeting to coordinate the investigation on the crash of Flight MH17 in eastern Ukraine, Russian News Agency (Ria Novosti ) reported.

"Just arrived in Moscow: another long day of back to back meetings tomorrow. I pray that all goes well," Hussein said on Twitter. It remains unknown who the minister is going to meet in Moscow.

Earlier it was reported that after the visit to Russia, the defense minister will travel to the Netherlands.

On Tuesday, Hussein met with Ukrainian Deputy Prime Minister and head of the Committee on the crash investigation Volodymyr Groysman.

Dutch experts on Tuesday released initial findings in their probe into the tragedy, saying MH17 "broke up in the air probably as the result of structural damage caused by a large number of high-energy objects that penetrated the aircraft from outside".
