I must say I have very little background knowledge on the history and relation of the two countries. Some of my friends are strongly against Russia and consider this incident the modern version of Czech being occupied by Hitler’s army. On the other hand, some point out that Crimea and the eastern part of Ukraine were Russian territory until 50 or 60 years ago, and there are good reasons for Vladimir Putin to take them back. (For example, http://m.gamer.com.tw/home/creationDetail.php?sn=2364254)
It goes without saying that when politics and diplomacy is concerned, there is no permanent right or wrong, but only permanent interest, and, when you look at the matter from that angle, Russia should always be eager to take over Ukraine - no, not Crimea or the Russian-speaking eastern Ukraine; I mean the whole country.
The traditional view could be understood by considering the structure of Russian navy.
Let me explain tomorrow.
