Anyone know what the actual difference between this time, and when Russia went after Crimea is? Other than money laundering and just political pandering, of course. Was there an actual different reason for Russia then then now?


More human rights violations by Ukraine against ethnic Russians living in eastern ukraine.

So not just a land grab, especially for more water/port frontage? What was Crimea about again?

I just figured both these were land grabs for water access and these area have more Russian allies in their population.
