When I was growing up the Black Sea was a Soviet Russian "lake"; and per long standing agreement with Turkey no-one sailed into the Black Sea without permission from them. Pretty sure re-establishing that is a priority along with annexing former USSR countries.

It's funny Russia always says it never starts anything but when the Russian aircraft carrier went though international waters by UK 5 years ago they just followed them with a fire in any shots or pulling up beside them honking their horn at them dropping bombs none of that bullshit. But when it's the other way around Russia does all the bullshit and still says it didn't start anything. Lol what a joke and Putin deserves everything coming to him karma's a bitch.

Ones upon a time, some climbers on a hike in the mountains at the end of the day set up tents and started cooking dinner.
After dinner they began telling to each other different scary stories about Bigfoot, Putin and so on.
The youngest of them started yawning and soon went to his tent to sleep.
After a while, scary stories were interrupted by horrible screams coming out from the tent of the youngest climber:
– Bend your finger! … Bend your finger!
Everybody burst out, unzipped his tent and could see him rushing about in his sleeping bag all covered by sweat and still yelling:
– Bend your finger! … Bend your finger!
One of the climbers woke him up, and asked him:
What kind of nightmare did you have?
Guys, I dreamed how Putin grabbed me, stuck his finger in my ass, and hung me upside down over the edge of the abyss on outstretched hand. I felt like I began to slide down along his finger and started begging loudly:
– Bend your finger! … Bend your finger!"

For the future of our world ,if by chance some dispute happens between superpowers who gonna regulate the situation ✅present millitery developments can boom the entire earth in a one go !!thats why there is no option than making the world borderless !!one world nation is the only solution to eliminate country to country fights,all the country representatives as a ministers and among them the minister who get the maximum votes be the king but his power must be check and balanced by all the ministers !thats how the world can get united with one world nations …plz think about it before its too late because we can already see many conflicts between countries already !!!
if we by chance get united ,there will be only one goal of the world people i.e colonizing another planet and in unity we can half time the development of infrastructures needed !! if the superpower country realizes this thing earlier ,the earlier the world will go to different civilization ..civilization of peace/happiness/and set an example of unity in diversity 😍❤️

Ukraine is led by a populist and Crimea is Russian property because Yeltsin (an alcoholic) gave Crimea away but he never followed the procedure necessary to make this official!. Think about UK " owning Falkland Islands /Gibraltar" and various small islands around the World and Hong Kong seized by UK via a hundred year lease forced upon China!". Boris is a populist he wants a short war and a victory parade for Boris (think Thatcher). Crimea obvious choice – NOT!.

Crimea
1774-1914 part of Tsarist Russia
1914-1954 part of Soviet Russia
1954-1991 part of Soviet Ukraine (defacto Soviet Russia)
1991-2014 part of Ukraine
2014-ongoing part of Russia
The Turkish people have a better claim to Crimea than Ukraine.
@omarsyed9543
January 1, 2024 at 2:01 pm
Crimea was "given" to Soviet Ukraine by Khrusjtsjov from Soviet Russia in 1954. After the Ukrainian fascists promised to join NATO, Russia decided to take back territory that was historically theirs and only symbolically "given" to Soviet Ukraine.
Context matters.
@omarsyed9543
January 1, 2024 at 2:01 pm
A corporatocracy/oligarchy objects to the historic territorial claims of an autocracy/oligarchy. Who'd a thunk it?!
The West is losing power around the globe, capitalism is eating it's birthplace from the inside out, and Bumbling Buffon Boris and the Brexidiots are desperate to show that the UK matters still in a global context.
The only reason they still mattered in the 21st century, was because of the US propping them up. And now that the Americans are dealing with the blowback from 100+ years of regime change/colonialism and other non western rising powers, they are less willing to stick their necks out for the Brits. At least the regular people are.
