Unfortunately a lot more objective than much of the mainstream American press which never bothered to mention that Crimea was part of Russia prior.
And a good part of the U. S. was Mexican territory for about 25 years. So fricken what?
The politboro and Khrushchev decided to let it go. Now, can you?
“Unfortunately a lot more objective than much of the mainstream American press which never bothered to mention that Crimea was part of Russia prior.”
That comment is a false statement and the repetition of a very notorious form a false propaganda coming from Russia’s worst sources of war propaganda. First, the MSM, as bad as it is, has “bothered to mention that Crimea was part of Russia prior.” Second, the fact Russia previously possessed the Crimea in no way whatsoever conferred some special right to Russia to use armed force to invade, conquer, and annex the Crimea in criminal violation of every international law on the subject. The Crimea has been the territory of the Ukraine for some 60 years now. That is more than one-third of the entire time the Crimea was possessed by Russia. So, the fact that Russia and the Russian Soviets possessed the Crimea in the past provides no legal justification for Russia to repossess the Crimea by force. Even the war propaganda using such irredentist claims to possess the Crimea in defiance of the Charter of the United Nations, the Kellogg-Briand Pact, the Budapest memorandum 1934, and the Budapest Memorandum 1994 is itself a grave breach of international law in the United Nations.
Nice to see that Putin propaganda/ internet troll machine has signed up.
Congrats for siding with a KGB sociopath and his quest to enslave million behind his new Iron Curtain.
