I looked into Crimea early on , as things are never what they seem to be when media's pushing the story. I found Crimea's history extraordinarily significant yet it's history was never made newsworthy ...of course....it would have turned the tide of all the news pundits talking points!

But ... the poor Crimean refugees! The slaughter! The tanks!

Oh. Nevermind. That didn't happen. The Crimeans actually wanted to be back in Russia and it was done peacefully. Our "tough guys" side with the butcher, Kruschev, not the Crimean people.

The best way to look at Ukraine is if it were possible for all sections/areas to pull out of Kiev's Governance, and could sustain themselves, they would gladly do so. With the possible exception of some in Western Ukraine.

Kiev Governance has been so deeply corrupt, and robbed the people for so many decades, it will take at least that long for the people to believe their nation has a chance to get above the waterline their leaders have subjected them to...if ever.

It should not have surprised any Crimea sought leaving Kiev once the New Governance was installed......or that the East would attempt to follow suit, though they simply wanted their own Parliament and self-rule. The people have been downtrodden and beat by their government and the new one only promised it would get worse...and it has as we see the deaths and destruction in the East..
