Crimea belongs to Russia...who cares what UN thinks.
obviously its just a resolution by the U.N, nothing binding.
You are right though Crimea now belongs to Russia since Russia already annexed it from Ukraine it's a fait accompli. Just like how Kashmir(Pakistani one) belongs to Pakistan who cares what India thinks? Similarly with Aksai Chin which China occupies who cares what India thinks and vice versa. Fait accompli.
It's true that Might makes right. I never disagree with that. In fact i'm not even against Russia using it's might to exert ts influence and carve out territories from its weaker neighbours, That's how geo politics works. I'm just surprise some cheerleaders here seem to claim Russia is holy and has done nothing wrong, yet if any western country tries to do anything even remotely similar they are the first to say the total opposite.
Crimea is part of Russia and Yanks can do nothing about it. Yankee criminals are only good in bombing hospitals, weddings and torturing prisoners.
Look how happy residents of Crimea are:
And here is very interesting documentary on Crimea:
lol This Russia dude who still claims to be Polish is still on here?. Thought you disappeared after running away from the other WWII battle of Britain thread discussion we had on here .
@waz Good to see you are back with a big BANG.
Just like Russia and China (or any great nation-state). Real-Politik.
If the argument is that Crimea was once part of the Russian Empire, then that doesn't bode well for countries like Poland, and the small baltic states. Fact is the Russian Empire had shrunk quite a bit from 1014 to 1918. The Soviet Union inhanced its zone of influence after WW2 (Warsaw pact countries) but lost all this again with the 1991collapse.
The ebb and flow of Russia's and other bordering states' boundaries can be followed on maps, year by year, from 1848 to 2015 here;

If I were to go by what was once the Netherlands, then Belgium and Luxembourg should be reunited immediately with the motherland.
We should also take back Ireland.
Goes to show that power is everything. The same West that went into Iraq and Afghanistan along with the USA couldn't lift a finger when Russia annexed Crimea. Of course Russia is going to defend each and every interest like any other nation would. Russia cannot be blamed for anything. These are the same Western powers that tried to totally annihilate Russia during the Cold War. They failed and Russia is today a resurgent power. More recently, they tried to encircle Russia by Europeanizing its direct neighbors. Russia is taking everything it wants in front of our eyes by hook or by crook. Even better, with Trump in the White House everything is up for grabs anyway. The path to victory is without obstacles.
What are you even talking about? Seriously i don't understand how some of you Pakistanis(even those abroad in the west) even think at times. You say Western powers tried to annhilate Russia during the Cold war?lol
Russia never tried to do that as well right?
Only the 'evil' West was fighting for influence and dominance , holy Russia was just defending itself and helping the world. LMAO
Too bad your home Country Pakistan and even China was our ally in bringing Russia down and breaking it down into pieces. So you should also blame your home country and China(both countries rightly considered the Soviet Union a far bigger threat to their existence back then). Since they helped the West in bringing Russia down.
Don't worry i know you will never do that for obvious reasons. Only the west is good to badmouth.
More recently, they tried to encircle Russia by Europeanizing its direct neighbors. Russia is taking everything it wants in front of our eyes by hook or by crook. .
This is an even funnier statement. old boyyyyyy, you are funny.
So we Europeanized Russia neighbours(or whatever that means)?
They were not European before isn't it? Guess they were Asians,Arabs or Pakistanis?
So we forced them to be 'Europeanized' and to hate Russia isn't it?
Your posts have made my day.
Keep it up please.
