Russia must first leave Ukraine including Crimea before any discussion of a UN recognized secession can take place. That’s the only way forward if Russia wants to end sanctions.
In the meantime prepare for Finland and Sweden to join NATO this year.
Based on what?:) What of that I posted is wrong?
Crimeans aren’t going to accept it any more than Texans the return to Mexico. Do you want to organize a bloodbath akin to that of Donbas?
BTW, Ukraine doesn’t want Crimea as well, for the same reason it doesn’t take Donbas back.
It is a dog and pony show.
