Russia + Crimea

RobVG — 3/15/2014 4:59:15 PM (archived)

Russia didn't "invade" Crimea this time, they increased their presence (15,000 troops). Now Crimeans are voting Sunday on whether to secede.

I don't think Crimeans will be intimidated into voting for Russia. And if the election isn't a shadow box, and Crimea rejoins Russia, the west should accept it and quit calling for sanctions.
