Explain how that works. Crimea is 80% ethnic Russian. It was part of Russia until 1960 when the Ukrainian Krushchev moved it administratively to Ukraine control. It's pretty off-base imagining that Crimea is more naturally a part of Ukraine in the long run than Russia given the ethnicity and strategic significance of the peninsula.

The warmongers and globalists keep preaching countries like Russia are bad for trying to defend themselves. It's OK in their eyes to massacre Russians in Ukraine and launch coups in Ukraine "for democracy," shut down churches and media and political parties and all the other illiberal, hypocritical activity western elites are doing to Ukraine.

Western elites are the greatest threat to freedom and our survival, whether we are Ukrainians or Americans or Russians. Kudos to Russia for fighting back against their hegemony.

Khrushchev was a Russian born in Russia. His family moved to Ukraine when he was young so he lived there for a number of years but he was not a Ukrainian.
