    Ukraine says it's going to take back Crimea. Is this possible ? Im wondering if anyone who is knowledgeable on this matter could explain if it's possible or not without bias either way.

    The Ugro-finnic Russia was a vassal of Crimean Khanate until 1700 and then that year Russia (under title "Moscovia") appeared as an independent state for the first time in history. Of course, Russia does not want everyone to know about it, because they are ashamed of it. Kyivan Rus was actually Ukrainian state only. The modern Russia is a true descendant of Golden Horde. According to the historical documents.

    Crimea is primarily Greek and it is full of ancient Greek cities Chersonisos (now Sevastopol) Pantikapeon (now Kerch) Theodosia (now Feodosiya) and many others. It's name is Tauris Chersonese (peninsula of the bulls) . The Greeks lived there from 1.000 BC until the times of the Greek Byzantine empire . The name Crimea was given by the Tatars much later . So it is not Ukrainian, nor Russian not Turkish or anything else.

PC Andrew Harper’s killers to stay in jail | BBC News Exclusive

Published

on



Prime Minister Andy Burnham has told the BBC that PC Andrew Harper’s killers will remain behind bars as he announces changes to the early release scheme aimed at easing prison overcrowding. 

In an exclusive interview with BBC Breakfast, Burnham said anyone convicted of manslaughter will be excluded from changes brought in under the Sentencing Act, which would have made the killers eligible for early release. 

Burnham said extra prison spaces would be created by deporting “hundreds” of foreign prisoners and releasing some inmates serving indefinite sentences.

At least 27 dead and hundreds evacuated after strike on Kyiv warehouse | BBC News

Published

on



Twenty-seven people have been killed and almost 400 evacuated after a Russian strike hit a warehouse near Kyiv, triggering a fire and a series of explosions.

Regional governor Tymur Tkachenko said a further 42 people, including four children, were injured after the Russian drone strike in the Bucha district.

An investigation has been launched into whether ammunition was being stored at the site, where search and rescue operations were ongoing early on Saturday.

Russia’s Ministry of Defence said in a statement that its forces had targeted “an ammunition depot” in the Kyiv region village of Myla, which stores “components and launch boosters for FP-1/FP-2 long-range unmanned aerial vehicles”.

Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky expressed his condolences to the families of the victims of the strike, saying that more than 300 emergency respondents had been deployed to the strike area.
