Why exactly was this trial celebrated? Who gave the Netherlands the power to judge these people? How could they even have a fair trial if they weren’t present? The West is a joke.

There was no celebration, the court has delivered its sentence. The questions you asked and perhaps some you didn't, are answered in the article. Wikipedia is also good: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malaysia_Airlines_Flight_17
Being tried in absence is not a new concept.
Because ruzzia killed 298 people from 17 countries?
