- venomsnake 11y agoYep. The same as Texas.
- powertower 11y agoIf Russia was "occupying" Crimea, there would be gunfire and bombs going off every day and night in that region. Kind of like what happened/is-happening in Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, and so on and on. > So Russia occupying Crimea is just politics... The politics of it is this - When the government of Ukraine was violently overthrown, and an un-elected regime was brought in that did not represent a significant portion of the people of Ukraine, Crimea had every right to join Russia - as it had been part of Russia for the majority of the last 200 years, Russians were the largest part of its population, and a turnout of 80%+ at the polls voted 90%+ yes. > just drawing borders in a way favorable to you? Why is it that people who do not live in Crimea want to decide the fates of the the people who do live in Crimea?
