@donvitocascioferro4040 the soviet Union also crushed its independence declaration in 1917 by military force, and first conquered Crimea in 1795. Until then it was run by the Tatars, a Turkic people who are the Crimea's indigenous people. They were deported by Joseph Stalin and replaced with ethnic Russians, which is called ethnic cleansing, or settlement policy if you prefer the more harmless phrase. Thus policy has been continued by Putin. Since 2014 1 million ethnic Russians have been resettled in the Ukraine, which has a population of 2.4 million, to make sure Crimea votes to be part of Russia in any independent future referendum. Do you know the history of the Crimea? I'm not sure you know that much.

@Benshafran crimea belongs to turkic Tatars, its indigenous people. It was conquered by the Russian empire in 1795, since when there has been a deliberate policy of ethnic cleansing. The main perpetrators of this are Stalin and Putin, a policy you no doubt approve of.

@andia968 I saw Chinese policy in Tianimin Square when the Chinese communist party murdered thousands of its own citizens for wanting democracy. I remember that.

@almakedon7605 yes, of course. We prevented Iraq annexing Kuwait. When we took down the psychopath running the place you got all upset.
