> crimea and eastern ukraine are all russians living there. would you be okay with russia taking alaska if most people there were russian? (it was part of russia in the past and the population has russian heritage/lineage) > if anything ukraine was the original land grab when the illegal 1991 coup happened and the soviet dissolution occurred. all coups are illegle. no need to qualify it. also, the coup you are talking about was the failed coup tried by the communists. democracy won and a bunch of countries voted out of the ussr when they had freedom. russia could have been a part of the freedom-loving west and kept its democracy but putin put an end to that.
