... "ethnic Russian" bullshit. If you are "ethnic Russian" that does not give you land rights. If you wish, move your ass to Russia.

The idiocy thrown out as some sort of sensible discourse is wearing. It doesn't matter if 100% of the country is "ethnic Russian". Some 30% of the US is "ethnically Hispanic", does that mean we should cede 30% of our land to Mexico? Not gonna happen.

And as for the Ukrainian gov't - their mistake was sitting on their hands for weeks. They should have sent in the tanks the day those fucks took over buildings and no one should have left without being in a body bag or handcuffs.
