February 20 2014. What exactly do you think this war is about? Do you think Russia has made the world safer since then? Do you think Crimea or Donbass belongs to Russia? Do you think Kiev is full of neonazis that only a Russian special military operation using artillery, cruise missiles, rape and torture can get rid of?

  Crimeans think they are part of Russia, and they voted numerous times on the issue. Also, what happened the day before Putin rolled his tanks into Crimea? Or do you think that just happened out of the blue?

    Which Crimeans, the Russian ones moved there as a form of colonization, or the Crimean Tatars, many of which was deported by Stalin[0]? You don't actually take the 2014 referendum seriously do you? Crimea voted for the independence of Ukraine from Russia in 1991. Even if 100% of the inhabitants would want to be part of Russia, does that give Russia the right to annex it? Do you believe in international law? What's your thoughts about Russia's invasion of Georgia? I'm well aware of Euromaidan, Yanukovych chose closer ties with Russia instead of the EU in opposition to most Ukrainians will. As I mentioned previously, Russia sees Ukraine and Belarus as Russian colonies and will not let them make their own decisions that aren't beneficial to Russia. If the Baltic states weren't part of NATO they would be next in line, with the same "protect our people" excuse that Putin and Hitler alike have used to annex and invade.

      > You don't actually take the 2014 referendum seriously do you? What, you don't like democracy? Besides, they name dropped Kosovo in the Declaration for a reason. There is no logical argument for recognizing Kosovo (which we do) and not recognizing Crimea. > Do you believe in international law? See Kosovo.
