Thread: Trump Seems to Side With Russia in Comments on Ukraine

Too many mysteries and disinformation as always by the media...so who knows,where's true....
I bet, sanctions go away soon as possible..Merkel can't urge to the WH what we can or can't do. She is out of control,anyway.
Of course,country like Poland, Lithuania or Ukraine, praying for more sanctions and U.S troops around Russia borders.

I bet,Secretary Of State, Tillerson, is more acceptable then Kerry...so we will see....

Russia tells White House it will not return Crimea to Ukraine

After order was restored, the Crimeans wanted a referendum to vote to choose to become part of Russia again, their homeland.

Khrushchev back in the 1950's woke up one day and decided to "gift" Crimea to Ukraine. When the USSR was disbanded, this left Crimea stuck in Ukraine. What Khrushchev did was wrong at the time but because it was part of the USSR and the whole place including Ukraine was part of the USSR, not much fuss was made over it. But after the USSR was disbanded, as time progresses and especially when this new leader took over Ukraine, the Crimeans wanted no part of it and wanted to go home and be part of Russia again, because they are RUSSIANS who live there, not Ukrainians.

The Crimeans rebelled against Ukraine. The Crimeans voted to be part of Russia. Who are we to tell them they have to be part of Ukraine? That is not our place, we are supposed to support the will of the people, not the will of governments they were "gifted to".

Russia did the right thing with regards to Crimea, they really did, they supported the will of the people of Crimea, the Russian people of Crimea. Why would we mess in that? Trump will get to the bottom and truth of this. The Democrats have lied about it, some Republicans have lied about it, and the CORRUPT MEDIA has TOTALLY LIED ABOUT IT.

Well said Judy. You are spot on, on everything.

Thank you so much, 6 Million Dollar Man!
