Ch4HD News said the a Early Vote Count was 92% want Crimea to be Russian


Of Course America says it wrong

Sticks 16-03-2014 05:26 PM

irrelevant

This poll is illegal

There was no - No change option

This is Putin wanting to bring back the USSR.

Some people here have never lived under the oppression of communism where freedom of thought and association were banned and neighbours were made to spy on each other and denounce them.

Have you forgotten the Berlin Wall?

Have you never read Animal Farm?

This is an annexation. The last time we saw that was when Saddam Hussain annexed Kuwait

This phony referendum did not have the option to remain part of the Ukraine, which is why those wishing to remain in the Ukraine boycotted it.

It is easy to hire rent a mob to make your self look good, dictators do it all the time.

joeysteele 16-03-2014 05:55 PM

It would seem to have been the wrong thing to have done to have Crimea as part of Ukraine anyway when the break up happened.

It is clear that the residents of Crimea favour being still a part of Russia.
This referendum may not be seen as valid by the rest of the World in the main but it has clearly at least given the people in Crimea's view as to where they would like to be.

If that is, with such a big margin, to be part of Russia, it would be rather foolish of the West particularly to now ignore that fact.

There wasn't a 'hired rent a mob', there was an 80% turnout for the vote and there were over 100 registered international observers overseeing the vote

There was the choice to stay as part of Ukraine, though that choice was to remain based on the 1992 constitution which grants greater autonomy than they have had in recent years (though still a part of Ukraine). I'd be amazed if there was even a tiny minority of people in Crimea who want to stay in Ukraine under the current Kiev government and with very little autonomy of their own.

Shaun 16-03-2014 07:51 PM

95.5%

gosh.

Well I say just let them go. It's very clearly what the people want.

BBfanUSA 17-03-2014 12:13 PM

I agree,

people are getting super worried about Putin and Russia right now.

I think this will end in two ways, Putin is going to at least get shot by someone with Russian ties or Russia will just put it's wanker away.

If East Ukrainians want to be a part of Russia why haven't they moved there then? Surely the government would accept them right?

East Ukrainians don't want to be part of Russia, they identify with being Ukrainian in the cultural sense, Ukraine is their home. They also identify strongly with Russia. Russian industry is why eastern Ukraine is prosperous. It's not too dissimilar to Scotland-within-the-UK line of thinking. It makes more sense for Russia to have its finger in other pies (i.e. other countries' politics by having a large number of Russian people living there) than to just take all those people back. It's like how China sends lots of people to its Western provinces to dilute the impact of separatist movements like Tibet and the Uyghurs in Xinjiang. There is a lot of irrational paranoia about Vladimir Putin but everything he's done thus far has been completely rational and the West can't do anything about it. The West set the precedent with Kosovo and they couldn't do anything about it when Russia stormed right up to Tbilisi in just five days in 2008. Russia simply protected its minorities in Georgian territory. There's been a strong sense of paranoia ever since in eastern Europe about "who's next" and now it's happening in the Ukraine. That's not Russia's fault. Russia has more of a leg to stand on than the West did when their combined forces entered Iraq or Afghanistan - nobody likes war or conflict but sometimes it's necessary and there's a lot of propaganda being written about Russia and the Ukraine just now because they're not on our side.

I think the West set a precedent with the annexation of Kosovo from Serbia. On this occasion it suited the West to have Kosovo declare independence but it took 93 days of bombing Serbia to finally allow this. The majority of Kosovans are ethnic Albanian and so democratically this is an acceptable outcome.

As is the Crimea in fact even more so as over 90% are Russian and WANT to be part of Russia plus this situation has resulted from no blood being spilt.

So where is the problem ? There is no problem other than the West forcing Mr Putin to take this step due to the meddling in Ukraine to depose the unpopular elected President.

As always Mr Putin is playing chess and Mr Obama is playing marbles...!!!

Yes absolutely, Kosovo was the precedent, and now the West doesn't have a leg to stand on, it was a very foolish move.
