BTW, you do know over 2 million, demographic majority Russians by history, ethnicity, heritage and by choice …who live in Crimea, they aren’t going anywhere…though the Ukes openly state they will deport them (or worse) once they “ liberate” Crimea.

The Russian Black Fleet is also going nowhere. In fact is expanding.

Russia is not leaving Crimea. No matter what genocidal offensive NATO tries to help the neo-nazi nationalists to try.

End of lecture

“The Russian Black (Sea) Fleet is also going nowhere. In fact is expanding.”

Unless Russia is building new warships in the Black Sea then no, the Black Sea Fleet is not expanding. Per the Montreux Convention the government of Turkey has closed the Bosporus to all transit by warships. This means there are no reinforcements going to the Black Sea for Russia.

In fact two Russian warships had waited nine months trying to gain passage to the Black Sea when they finally gave up and apparently headed for Vladivostok.

The Russian Black Sea fleet is therefore not expanding.
