Ukraine crisis: Armed men 'seize Crimea military base'

Armed men thought to be Russian have seized a Ukrainian military base in the Crimean city of Sevastopol.

However, the Reuters reporter said he could not see sign of any damage to the gate and that the armed men appeared to have taken control without a shot being fired.

A Ukrainian military official, Vladislav Seleznyov, said no-one was hurt.

I guess they must've been trained to fight by the French.

Or that base is unimpressed with the putsch in Kiev and they’ve gone over.

“I guess they must’ve been trained to fight by the French. “

The leaders didn’t give them orders to fire. If they had there would have been a fight.

This is what I’m afraid of, our men being given bad orders or no orders or told to wait for orders that never come.
