Crimea has been trying to detach itself from Country 404 ever since the breakup of the Soviet Union in 1991, when former Republics were supposed to choose…..first trying to remain an autonomous republic, as it pretty much had been under the USSR…..then trying to form its own nation with an elected govt ….that was treacherously undermined by Ukrainian authorities.

Crimea has since continued to vote for referendums of autonomy and voted heavily almost exclusively for pro-Russian political reps in every election since.

Had Ukraine respected their autonomy, language, heritage, and cultural ties to Russia….as well as that of Donbas, as outlined by Minsk) all those territories would still be part of Ukraine…which however has proven it cannot exist as a multicultural country under the control of a nationalist supremacist regime.

Look it up.

Voting under threat is not voting. Its tyranny.

Also, if Cuba decides to annex Florida one day, in order to “protect Cuban-Floridian citizens rights” (for example)... do you really think Washington should accept that? Or should we send in the Marines to liberate Florida from the Cuban claws?
Crimea belongs to Ukraine. Period.
If we don’t accept that. Then Texas must be returned to Mexico, etc.. etc.. etc...

We must stop the Islamo-Neosoviets (Russia-Iran-Hamas Alliance) overtaking the world against America’s interests. The only way to stop the Russian for-ever wars is to stop their multiple invasions right in their tracks.
If we let it spread, we’ll be sorry.
