A poll conducted this month by the analytical Levada Center found that most Russians support the idea of an international tribunal on the crash of Malaysian Airlines flight 17, although they also believe that either the Ukrainian military or the Ukrainian government are responsible for the disaster. In a poll taken earlier this month, Levada pollsters found that 85% of Russians put the blame for the crash on Ukraine.

The poll was conducted July 15-20 among 800 people in 46 Russian regions.
