Every time I hear Times Radio discussing whether Crimea could perhaps be given to Russia in exchange for peace, I feel like asking how British folk would feel, if Denmark had a radio show pretending to have a serious debate about returning the Danelaw to Denmark.
Just like Britain is Britain, Ukraine is Ukraine. And no matter how many times the Murdoch media empire keeps platforming people who insist on both-siding Putin’s illegal invasion, that will never change.
@randahl I suspect a much higher %age of people living in Crimea want to be part of Russia than people living in the Danelaw area want to be part of Denmark.
To me, I feel like there are other reasons why ceding Crimea is a bad idea right now. (It might be nice to have a proper referendum on this someday long after the violence stops, and free of little green men.)
