Putin has already annexed Crimea, part of Ukraine when the Soviet Union imploded and the states under Moscow got their independence. In eastern Ukraine, the Russians have been assisting the rebels and even shot down an aircraft full of Dutch families on their way to a holiday in the Far East. With a Kremlin-friendly American president, watch for a Russian take-over of the rest of Ukraine as well as threats to the Baltic States who are small and have borders with the Russian Federation.When Putin annexes Ukraine what I wrote will not seem idiotic.
Putin did not annex Ukraine, why should he?
Ukrainians have to vote and ask for being part of the RF, and the Russian Duma has first to approve this request.
Eastern Parts of Ukraine voted for a unification with the RF, but the Russian Duma rejected this request of Ukrainian rebels.
That is a good example how real democracy works.
