The Russian Plane May NOT have accidently been shot down...hmmm.... 04.10.2001 22:19 eurasianews.com Interfax Putin doubts that Tu-154 was shot down by Ukrainian missile MOSCOW. Oct 4 (Interfax) - Russian President Vladimir Putin believes that the weaponry used by Ukrainian air defense units in the Crimean exercise on Thursday has too short a range to reach the area where the Tu-154 was flying. It would be premature to make any statements before experts complete their analysis, he said. The exercise was watched, in particular, by Russian servicemen, Putin said. "There is no reason why we should not trust them or Ukrainian defense officials," he said. The two defense ministries are analyzing details of the incident in an effort to understand what has led to the explosion and loss of the plane, Putin said. [RU EUROPE ASIA EMRG UA AIR DIS] ap <>
