Crimea is a part of Ukraine. Occupied by Russia at the moment.
Its people held against their will. Others being stateless. Or
being held in Russian gulags.
Nevertheless I would not recommended anybody to make such statements not hearing the real people from Crimea. You can look funny.
Yes it is true, Russia has spent billions of dollars to rise the Crimea economy and infrastructure.
Ukraine spent nothing for Crimea after getting independence.
Ukraine indeed has cut off fresh water and electricity to its "temporarily occupied citizens" - this only fact tells us how Ukraine authority in Kiev
is "care" about its citizens. No wonder that they don't like this authority.
So I ask you listen not to Aljazeera opinion, but, to the people of Crimea themselves. But do western reporters have been in Crimea for these 8 years?
Crimea has a population of 2.5 million people. After seven
years of Russian misrule, what could they possibly be upset
about? Poor social services, dirty water, and high prices for
just about everything. To name just a few things. But none of
that matters when freedom to say or criticize the hand that
feeds you could mean jail or even death for you or members of
your own family. But hey. Don't take my word for it. I'm just a
funny man who is totally out of his mind. Better to pay
attention to journalists from around the world who tell it like
it is -

How did Ukraine cut off fresh water from Crimea?
You know little about this conflict. In the time of the USSR a special water channel to supply fresh water was dug from Dnepr river in Ukraine
to the Crimea (via the neck which connects Crimea with Ukraine). Electricity until 2014 also was from Ukraine. Note, that after 2014
Russia has never cut off Ukraine from supplying it with Russian gas, oil and electricity.

You should learn facts but not to think them out.
I wrote about the Ukraine independence in 1991 -- wasn't it clear?

I put "care" in quotation marks, which means it is a false statement,
on the verge of the opposite meaning.

Yes, Crimea is a part of Ukraine. And Ukraine does care very
much for its own citizens. Nothing new about that.

Well, Of course there were negotiations, but you can guess easily the Ukraine answer -- "If you say that Crimea is not the part of Ukraine --
no fresh water and electricity for the people of Crimea".
Women and children are not very important -- they are Russian women and children.
The fact is that Russia has invaded a
peaceful sovereign nation.
No, it wasn't. It is clear that Russia
annexed Crimea.
This was in response to Russia's meddling in
Crimea.

You know nothing about this "peaceful sovereign" nation. But that's fixable - they've already come to you, you'll have to move over and integrate with them. And it's no longer them with you, but you with
them ;) it won't be easy.
No, it wasn't. It is clear that Russia annexed Crimea.
Being part of Russia is the choice of the Crimeans, and twice - in 1991 and 2014.
When Europe begins to divide (and it will) - remember this ;)
You are not making sense.
OK, If Crimea wants to be a russian republic
they may do so.

It is you who SAY you don't understand. Nazism has already infiltrated Europe, the Bandera's are on their doorstep. This is how they were
raised for 30 years.
Crimea made its final choice in 2014 and feels fine. But to "the whole" world (the Western world) it remains an "annexation of Russia" for some reason.
No electricity in Crimea?
After the cutting off electricity, Crimea has a few own weak power
plants. In some time Russia has laid 4 powerful cable lines across Kerch Strait and the problem was solved.
The fidonet nodes did not go off-line because of lacking
electricity ... and that's an undisputed fact ... Believe what
you want ...
The UK will cease its existence really soon.

That is Russian propaganda. It is baseless.
Sure, Crimea can decide what path they
choose. Not Russia.
