fair, I pointed out nafta, and thus invoked US interpretation of treaties.
1) I don’t (and you don’t seem to either) know what the legal nature of the agreement between ukraine and russia is on the crimean port. Do you have hard data on this agreement? I don’t.
2) no pending case exists in the US on this issue. None will, I confidently predict lol.
3) If this is a legal measure by Ukraine under their existing agreement with russia, it is less likely to be over-turned by the Ukrainian govt in some fashion than if it is ‘ink on a page’ type of technicality.
We return to point 1, since neither you nor I have been able to state what the respective parties actually agreed to with the port in question.
Yup, that does pretty much some it up. Nice little discussion there, btw. Good back and forth, but no rancor or profanity. Kind of thing found here but not on the nutroots, eh?
The mere fact that Russia attacked Georgia should be sufficient to negate that treaty in whole in any world court and certainly in the court of public opinion.
