The Tatars could be a dangerous element. Otherwise, perhaps Crimea would be better off on its own - the Ukrainian solution was always a bit forced and I never knew why the Russians did it. Maybe Kruschev hated the Crimea or something...although all the party bigs had their dachas there, didn’t they?
Yeah you are so right about Tatars they don’t mess around
The Russians will no doubt set up a Crimean protectorate state under the eternal protection of Moscow.
It doesn’t take a genius to predict the outcome of the March 30 referendum in Crimea.
"Independence". LOL. More like Russian control.
Why would they give a city a special status?
Are they angling for a seperate state for themselves, and offering up Sevastopol to the Russians for the Russian"s to permanently have a port for the Russian military fleet.? - Tom
Today, they need foreign tourists. I expect Crimea again to become the summer playground of the Russian elite and Western tourists. Its a heartbreakingly beautiful place.
Yalta is beautiful. The air is just amazing.

It’s all nuts. That’s why we need to keep Obama/Kerry/Soros/McCain/Rubio from getting us involved in this situation. Russia/Ukraine/Galicia need to work it out themselves.
Pretty small "Navy". I count nine guys.
That’s just the choir ..LOL
I agree....but Obama is going to want to “play” kingpin to some degree...his ego demands it.
Ukraine will figure it out and you can bet the neighbor countries will have a say as well...not to mention Europe.
IMO it’s their’s to handle....but in the end Ukraine will remain divided I think...perhaps Chimea will go Russia or Independant...but unlikely as Putin knows the people there are in part why Ukraine hasn’t already gone Nato. They’re rather like his ace in the hole.
Okay, so now do the Ukrainian minority and the Tatars get to carve off a slice of Crimea too? They make up about 40% of the population.

Rossiya Segodnya incorporates the former RIA Novosti news service and the Voice of Russia international radio service (formerly Radio Moscow).
Maybe they can move to Lviv? I’m sure the Tatars will be welcomed there.
Sorta like Texas became an independent state then joined the Union— I can see this happening in Criema.
More welcome then in Moscow.
Russia Today = Pravda yesterday.
