    Well, Turkey is an ally for Muscovy, but still Turkey lives in a normal world and IT (much like rest of the world) will never RECOGNIZE Muscovite occupation(s). will Putin just swallow it ? my guess yes, he has no choice ...

    "
    The Foreign Ministry of Turkey three years after the unlawful annexation of Crimea by Russia reiterated that the country does not recognize the outcome of the illegitimate referendum and confirms its support for the territorial integrity and sovereignty of Ukraine.

    “Three years have passed since Ukraine’s Autonomous Republic of Crimea was annexed by the Russian Federation on the grounds of an illegitimate referendum held on 16 March 2014. We reiterate that we do not recognize the de-facto situation caused by this act which is a clear violation of the international law,” the ministry said in a press release posted on its website on Saturday."https://www.kyivpost.com/ukraine-po...y-not-recognize-annexation-crimea-russia.html

    Of course Turkey doesn't recognize Crimea reuniting with Russia. That's nothing new. They always wanted Crimea for themselves, after all the Tatars are 11% of the population and they're ethnically Turks. If you don't know that, then you don't know Turkey.

    "United Nations General Assembly Resolution 68/262 was adopted on March 27, 2014 by the sixty-eighth session of the United Nations General Assembly in response to the Russian annexation of Crimea and entitled "Territorial integrity of Ukraine". The non-binding resolution, which was supported by 100 United Nations member states, affirmed the General Assembly's commitment to the territorial integrity of Ukraine within its internationally recognized borders and underscored the invalidity of the 2014 Crimean referendum"

    And two years later president of Ukraine is so incapable of doing his job, that he follows lead of armed outlaws - apparently out of fear of being overthrown, just like his predecessor. Otherwise - blockade would've been scattered, organizers arrested, and citizens of Ukrauine would've been receiving their electricity.

    As for referendum - it always can be reapeated, and results will be same. Doubt that majority of citizens of Crimean republic wish to go into a wide hugs of Poroshenko, who turned other regions that had referendumbs but no RF peacekeepers - into a war zone.

    Putin swallowed Crimea under Obama's watch and he never did a thing about it. How much more you think Putin will try to take during Trump's reign? Don't forget Trump has Mad Dog Mattis as his SecDef and Tillerson at SecState.

    I expect that seventy three years later wishes of people living there matter more than... Well, practically almost anything. Besides... What country you from? USA? - why, then, matter wishes of Texas and New Mexico states citizens, and not wishes of mexicans who got driven from there during wars of USA with Mexican Republic a mere century and a half ago? It's merely two times longer period of time, than time that passed since Stalin's deportations! Sure there is not much of difference.
    And if we REALLY look in the historic root of things - why do not you pack your things and just return to mother Europe, that gave birth to your distant ancestors, and leave America for americans - for native people of the continent, Pueblo, Mohawks, Kamanchi, Sious and others? They have lived there practically since the Ice Age, while USA is present only for couple centuries and a half.

    you may read where its annexed and stalins deportations. And sure the wishes maybe matter more, but the vatniks in the LDPR terrorists seem to want to make up minds for everyone else against their wishes. Seems these people just don't get it.

    It ended in not austrians fighting against Germany.

    Speaking of occupations... Red Army is no more, the soviet occupation logically ended... Why Ukraine - formal UkrSSR - is still holding a polish city of Lwow? Should it not be returned in national state of people who so fiercely fought for it?

    Yes - what misery of living will change in historic injustices against those, who are already dead?

    I grew tired. People deserve safety, peace and happyness. Not for you to make decidions for them, not for you to own them - decidion made by them are theirs, and theirs only. You may or may not understand that, but truth will not change from it. Lies dissolve in the light of each new day - and yours will dissolve. The effort you put in them... Terrifying. Wish I may learn to forgive you. Or save people who your lies harm.
