Russian troops fire warning shots at unarmed Ukranian Airmen

Russian troops who had taken control of the Belbek air base in the Crimea region fired warning shots into the air as around 300 Ukrainian soldiers, who previously manned the airfield, demanded their jobs back. About a dozen Russian soldiers at the base warned the Ukrainians, who were marching unarmed, not to approach. They fired several warning shots into the air and said they would shoot the Ukrainians if they continued to march toward them. The shots reflected tensions running high in the Black Sea peninsula since Russian troops - estimated by Ukrainian authorities to be 16,000 strong -tightened their grip over the weekend on the Crimean peninsula, where Moscow's Black Sea Fleet is based.

I didn't say that. I might have said I do not care if he is finished in the Ukraine or not. I certainly said we have no business in the conflict.
I don't recall you taking any position--as usual.

I'm more worried about the violence that will erupt when Russia invades the rest of southeastern Ukraine.

This x10
The Russians aren't going to exactly be warm to the radicalized Muslims in Ukraine.

Not that we need to be directly involved but that is a far cry from no business.

Such a shame. The radicalized Muslims are typically very peaceful, like to keep them themselves, and respect the views of others.

Most of the Ukrainian muslims live on Crimea anyway.

Same here, almost like saying Bosnian Muslims are radical.
