If Putin was so mad that Khruschchev gave Crimea to Ukraine, then why did Putin loyally serve Khrushchev as a member of the KGB?

The only thing Putin is mad about is the collapse of his beloved EVIL EMPIRE.

54% of Crimeans voted for Ukrainian independence in 1991. In Sevastopol City in was 57%.

Certainly in 1991 your statement that "practically all Crimean citizens...are still pissed that it (Crimea) was handed over to Ukraine as a gift" would be incorrect.

And since then, with a new generation of UKRAINIANS being born in Crimea, the number of Crimeans who are "pissed" that Crimea was Ukranian is probably even smaller.

Study some history.

Ironic.
