Russia Ukraine war, page-206925

Get your facts right before you spout BS. The USA itself carried out polls in Crimea prior to 2014 to assess what the population wanted to do in future. The majority of the people wanted to join with Russia. That, I repeat, was the result of polls carried out NOT by Russia, but by the good old interfering USA. Brian Berletic found and revealed these polls on his channel.
The Russian referendum results simply mirrored the poll results.
