The West is imposing sanctions on Russia because they are invading countries.
Doesn’t anyone here want to admit that moving back their own borders would end any hassles the rest of the world are punishing them with?
It’s only been 22 years, and all you pro-Russian Jimmy Carters want to rebuild the evil empire?
Russians consider Crimea theirs. They colonized it and Russian is still the spoken language there. It is home to the black sea fleet and they will fight to defend it. Somehow the deed to Crimea ended up in Kiev but the Russians just are not going to leave. It is a slavic affair and not worth starting a world war over.
