Why do Russians want war all the time?!
Yeah right as if Russians were in war for past 15 years with "terrorism" ...
It's a different scale to invading another country though..
Not exactly simple as it sound ... 70% population in Crimea are Russians and unitil 1954 this was part of Russia given to Ukraine which then was part of Soviet Union.
So not really a simple as "invasion" of another country.
Now its Putin to the rescue- Bollox ! Black Sea access simple.
Russia without Ukraine do have Black See access ...
Well yes so Russia can sail out of Krasnodar, they just won't be able sail back in if it kicked off. They also don't have a dry dock outside of the Ukraine...
It just gets me that some bent politician in Ukraine sends all the money to Geneva for "safekeeping", people are getting shot in the street by the army, Putin sends in unmarked paratroops to take over the equivalent of Heathrow and Gatwick, USA threatens sanctions probably via the UN yet its Obama who's the asshole....
You've missed the whole issue on the Crimea and Putin but didn't miss the opportunity to have a crack at the US, if Putin had his black clad paratroops at the end of your road following a surprise invasion it wouldn't be long before you were asking where the hell the yanks were I'm guessing....
