  3.  @3373just  - Forgive me - I was not being rude earlier, I was literally going out the door with my dog. I don't know THAT much, I don't live there but I do know people in Ukraine and I have a good friend in Sevastopol, Crimea. None of the people I know are pro-Russia. Has Russia sent people to Donbas??? More likely people have migrated economically as Donbas is an industrialised area of Ukraine next to a pretty run-down part of Russia and 30 years is a LONG time since the referendum in 91/92 - 50% of the people that voted in that referendum are now DEAD. The region is very pro-Russian. And what probably helps is when Russia took Crimea. They didn't just annexe it and turn it into a concentration camp - they mumped billions of Rubles into its infrastructure - it has a massive new shiny bridge to Russia and rail links - my friend used to run an estate agents - that went bust cos all of a sudden no one wanted to live there... She now owns a high end beauty spa in the mountains where rich Russian women go for 2 weeks. So if YOU live in Donbas and you look at Crimea which is BOOMING [somewhat artificially - its done for a reason] since the Russians took over you are going to want the Russians to take over your area so YOU can work in a beauty spa and not a steel factory built in the 1970's... Life under the Russian regime has NOT been the living hell that the west makes it out to be for the people of Crimea - for many it has improved - for some it has got worse - but mostly it just continues.
