leninstreet Canadian. Never said it wasn't a "biggie" but an obvious consequence of events, one that would be played out by any major world power. This is not about taking sides since they are all in it for their own gain. It's about the Ukrainian people that are in the middle of a tug of war. And yeah ignore the precedent of a prior Ukrainian referendum, the Kosovo ruling and just about every other "sovereign" state in existence, ever, including the Vatican, The USA, Israel...As the international court ruled, there is no set precedent on secession or declaration of sovereignty. Anyway Russia was already there and part of the local economy and had a huge military presence, now it is a part of the local economy and has a huge military presence....

No one should have that power yet we see it is a precedent already on the world stage and supported by powers against this situation in Crimea. And it's not really an annexation but more of guarantee of their autonomy. Russia was the primary force in Crimea before the revolution, both economically and militarily. Nothing has changed on that angle outside the Ukrainian influence from Kiev. Anyone that thought Russia would just give up their port and military bases is crazy or lying. Anyone that thought they would not mobilize their forces during a time of civil unrest is crazy or lying. If China invaded Japan, USA would mobilize its Okinawan forces to secure the immediate area regardless of law. It might be a slap to Kiev but Crimea don't care for the most part. If I remember, Ukraine left Russia via a referendum lol
