The British involvement in Crimea was effective in hindering the Russian efforts to eject Islam from Europe, and is one reason that to this day Thrace is under Turkish governance.

Actually, it’s not. It became Russian in 1783. Internal Soviet borders are no longer binding.

Ukraine lost its sovereignty (which it only had for 23 years) in 2014, thanks to Obama & Biden.

The Russians were in Crimea before we were in Ohio.

The Russians took it from Turkey, so, should Turkey reasonable take it from Russia?

Crimea has changed hands in the past, and up till 2014, it was part of Ukraine.

Russia has taken over lands that belonged to other people before, so, shouldn't Russia give those back too?

BTW, should we have to give back Californai and Texas back to the Mexicans, according to your way of thinking?

> BTW, I've never been to Ohio,but you certainly are a newcomer to that state, being as how the American Indians had it before YOU took it.

“”The borders in Europe have gone back and forth for a thousand years without any help from the USA.””

You are including the last 100+ years?

You do realize that Crimea was part of Russia before California was part of the USA, right?

“Actually, it’s not. It became Russian in 1783. Internal Soviet borders are no longer binding.”

Yet, Russia recognized Ukraine’s borders in 1992, and 1994; and Crimea was within those borders. If Crimea was not within Ukraine’s borders, then why did Russia sign an agreement with Ukraine to have its naval base there?

How do you figure that?

As it starts looking more and more like Ukraine is going to lose, expect a horrible American false flag attack using chemical weapons attack maybe even a small nuke that “President” Biden will use as pretext for America officially joining the war.

“When they became a full time puppet with a muppet leader for the west.”

Ukraine wanted closer relations with the West, and had for years before Zelensky became president in 2019. There were measures passed by the RADA (the Ukrainian Parliament) to move forward with ties to the West, especially Europe and the EU. Yanukovych scuttled those plans after having campaigned for them when he ran for president. Then, when he was in office, he did an about-face and started to do Putin’s bidding. THAT is what caused the turmoil in 2013 and 2014.

Except for the ethnic Russians Ukraine has been killing since 2014.

Ask Orban about the Ukraine army killing ethnic Hungarians in Ukraine.

Ukraine wants only pure blood Ukrainians living there.
They kill the others especially the roma.

And visiting Africans attending college there were denied assistance by Ukraine when the war first began.

You cannot sugarcoat these nazi monsters.
But keep trying.

History doesn’t matter if you are here with a russophobic agenda.

London will be one of the first places Russia nukes and there is good reason for that.
