Japanese Kuril islands, which Japan itself took in 1905-6?

Who cares? You want to count from 1920, so keep the line.

As for the Fins, they can negotiate and work something out if they wish.

Yeah right ROTLF

In Georgia, or rather defacto independent Abhazia and S.Ossessia the people have won independence from Georgia and now want and demand to be part of Russia, which was also not the case for the first 7 years. Only after constant Georgian aggression from 1993-2000 (post the initial 1991-1993 wars) did they ask to be part of Russia.

Maybe you want also independent Chechnya and all other nations occupied by Russia? Those separatist are instructed directly from Moscow so their claims are meaningless for me.

I have no problem with them being independent nations, do you? Or is it better to force people against their will to be part of Georgia....yup, now that's "freedom". /sarcasm

They are not independent, they are ruled by the Russian mafia. Kremlin even managed to change results of the so called “elections” in Abkhazia. I will accept their independence as fast as Kremlin recognize independent Chechnya (read NEVER)

Yeah, I'm sure the Georgians cleansing them were also instructed by Moscow. Please, you sound like a broken record.

Oh and as for the Chechens, sure if they take only the land they had in 1920, which is the southern half of what they now own. Grozny and the Tarek river valley belonged to the now extinct Tarek Cossaks....massacred by Stalin and his CHECHEN allies in the early 1920s.
