Actually, if we’re going by the “law” (I know, silly concept) the President of Ukraine asked Russia to help as there was a coup taken place. The leaders in Kiev, in my estimation, have absolutely zero credibility as leaders. They are not the true representatives of the country and as a result they don’t have the authority to tell Russia not to come into the country. Yanokovich is the leader of the country until he is voted out, dies or is impeached. Not sure why everyone is acting like some how that aggressive overthrow of the central government was legal. I think what has really happened here is that what happened in Lybia was the straw that broke the Camel’s back. It was a gross over reach by the western powers and it will cost us all relative stability in the world.

What? The former president has the authority to let invaders into the country, but the parliament, the people have no say about an invading army?

Right. Wouldn’t that make him a dictator?

Then you go on to say it was the West who was overreaching? That’s what caused Russia to invade a sovereign nation? Maybe it’s Russia who caused themselves to invade?
