How much land can Putin take because they used to own it?
I don't think he's trying to colonize. He wants control over that area so he can continue to get natural gas out to western europe, and he needs that gulf open to do that. It's a huge financial asset to them. The only reason our Gov cares is because they realize we could benefit from Russia's loss of that asset. When Russia can't sell their natural gas to countries that belong to the EU, guess who can.
