Canada needs nukes to maintain sovereignty? So, canoe it through a river and release it to the ocean hoping it hits something?

Ukraine doesn't need nukes to resolve their issue, that's their land and Russia has no jurisdiction claiming territory anywhere. They can withdraw their supporters but shooting is another ordeal.

Heres my take on this, Crimea use to be apart of Russia until the 1950's and the majority back then were un-happy with the USSR's move to make it apart of the Ukraine, and it seems the majority of people there want to re-join Russia, and thatGÇÖs fine by me, and it would be foolish for Ukraine to not allow it, as it could create more problems for them in the future.

As for RussiaGÇÖs Response on this, First They are getting desperate, Russia's sphere of influence over the Former Soviet states, Warsaw pact members and collection of poor tin-pot dictatorship has been dimensioning the last ten years. Russia's GDP per capita has been increasing since Putin has been running Russia, but places like Ukraine are still struggling and the people there feel that have have more to gain from, which I don't blame them. Second reason for this response, its just to appease the internal audience with-in Russia, same as Obama's response to the situation, to appeal to the conservatives with in the USA, typical Cold-war era wind bagness.

Whats in the future, if Ukraine breaks away Russia, it means other Former soviet states are probably going to do the same thing, meaning Russia's going to be face of either being alone, or having to integrate with the West(IE the rest of the world) trade wise.

The 2nd Crimean War ? ?

The 2nd Crimean War ? ?

Only if Britain gets involved there again.

Russian Parliament has authorized direct military intervention in Ukraine today.
(Yesterday it was only "non-military humanitarian aid"
Putin says it is necessary to "protect ethnic Russians in area".
I believe someone in the late 30's used a very similar reason to invade a few countries.

Except that about two thirds of the crimean population ARE ethnic Russians who seem to prefer closer ties with Motherland.
"National aspirations must be respected; people may now be dominated and governed only by their own consent. Self determination is not a mere phrase; it is an imperative principle of action. . . ."
Who said that? Oh, President Woodrow Wilson!
Who is the agressor and who is the defender in this case? It-¦s certainly not that simple.

Please. It is that simple.

First the timing:
Suddenly at such a moment Putin reminds himself of ethnicty in Crimea and takes action.Right.

IF Putin was really only worried about peoples walfare there and ethincty there are number of peacful ways to go about it:

What he is doing is using the turmoil to carve another piece of land for hikmself , a juicy one this time , with black sea access.Prolly also furious taht Ukraine , wiht upcoming free elections , might get free out of Russia's shpere of influence.

And, if he's prepared to try to take the rest of Ukraine despite the presence of Western troops, then he'll have proven that the Russian government has become nothing more than avaricious criminals and despots.
