The war is over.

We lost.

Crimea is Russia.

That is that.

I'm afraid you're right-- not much to do except get some popcorn and watch the show move on to the Baltic states and the East China Sea.

We'll be lucky if Mexico doesn't get the southwest back by the end of Hussein's term.

Russian military block most of Ukrainian military units in Crimea – Ukraine’s acting defense minister

The Russian military have blocked most of the military units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in Crimea, according to Ukraine’s acting defense minister Ihor Teniukh.

“In fact, most of the military units on the Crimean peninsula have been blocked now,” Teniukh said in the air of Inter TV Channel on Monday evening.

He says that the major goal of such action by the Russian side is an attempt to provoke Ukrainian military men so that “they respond to that provocation, and then the operation that was planned long ago and whose planning took more than a year could become a reality.”

Teniukh cited the events in Georgia in August 2008 as an example. “You all should remember that option that was provoked by Russia.”
