Why the hell should ethnic Russians in Crimea, Donetsk and Lugansk agree to be ruled by Ukrainian nationalists that hate them?

Russia has had a naval base in Crimea in 1783. Who in their right mind thinks Russia was going to give that up after we fomented an illegal coup?

Everything we've done in Ukraine since 2014 was designed to start a proxy war with Russia, foolishly thinking we could win.

Yes. But at that time, Spain owned Florida. Should we give it back to them?
