#1 90% of the Crimeans wanted to be part of Russia, so why not? It's more Russian than Ukrainian by a long shot...like about half of Ukraine anyway.

#3 Crimea became part of Ukranai when ukranian Khroutchov dec ided to add it to the Soviet Republic of Urkenia. It had never been ukranian before. Even in pre-mongolic times the Rus' of KLiev only owned half of it.

There ia case for an independent Crimea, there is a case for a russian Crimea, there is non for an ukranian Crimea

#4 JFM, for the opinion piece you submitted, Statistics and the US elections , did you forget the link or is it your personal opinion? Both are welcome, as it is well-argued, but if you got it somewhere else we need a link.

Merci beaucoup!
