The announcement from Crimea's parliament comes as EU leaders meet in Brussels to discuss how to respond to Russia's troop deployment on Ukrainian soil.

In my day, the presence of foreign troops on another country's soil without the permission of that other country was known as an invasion. BBC's wording makes it seem so benign.

“In my day, the presence of foreign troops on another country’s soil without the permission of that other country was known as an invasion”

Like the American troops in Iraq? Bosnia? Serbia? Somalia? Panama? Nicaragua? Or do you have another country in mind?
