What did you do a year and a half ago? You should have provided this explanation to the UN General Assembly when it condemned Russia for the annexation. I know, they are losers and know nothing about international law.
BTW, what about Crimean Tatars?
Below you'll find enough information about Crimea as a part of Russia as well as lots of links for you, links-lover, and stories from European witnesses.
A delegation of French lawmakers has come to Russia recently to pay a visit to the Crimea – the first such visit since the region’s accession to the Russian Federation in March 2014.
"We saw happy people here who live in Crimea and have returned to Russia. We talked to young people. It’s a very different picture from what is shown in our countries. I saw such a warm welcome here. We had a completely different idea about Crimea [before the visit]," one of the 10 lawmakers told journalists after talking to residents of the Crimean city of Yalta.

“I am very happy that I came here, because listening to you [residents of Crimea], I understand the position, which is not expressed anywhere – in any of the media in Europe, in none of the Parliaments of Europe, nor in the European Parliament or the Council of Europe, nor the OSCE,”di Borgo said.
"I think public opinion is making a gradual evolution,"he concluded. "
I hope our trip to Russia will speed up this evolution, as the French government will have to give a bigger measure of attention to this opinion at a certain point."

A visit to a French military cemetery [the biggest cemetery of French soldiers abroad] was included into their agenda too. Official Kiev kept misinforming the world about bad condition of the cemetery and possible plans of destroying it. The lawmakers could see with their own eyes: the Memorial was in an ideal condition. They told the press later, what a huge difference was between the way Western Media reported about the situation in Crimea and reality.
Official Kiev was pretty mad, because French lawmakers could see the truth about Crimea (which Ukraine was trying to hide so badly) with their own eyes and tell the Western world about it.

French lawmaker Jacques Myard asked her to refrain from the use of the term ‘annexation’ in respect of the recent development in Crimea. "It is a kind of return to a natural course of history, since Crimea has always belonged to Russia," he said. "I think we must face up to reality. There is no bigger mistake in foreign politics that denial of the reality, and our Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius keeps on saying we are going to plunge into no wars over Crimea. So, time is coming when we must emerge from the state of deception and begin reckon with reality."

And the info below is just for you, Camp. It’s about Crimean Tatars, whom you worry so much about.
The French lawmakers became convinced that Crimea had avoided war and anarchy unlike many trouble spots in Ukraine, the magazine went on to say. "The military and police presence was moderate. The people of Crimea did not look like they were leaving under occupation. On the contrary, they were happy that they had made their choice in favor of Russia and could now live in peace," the report’s author who accompanied the French lawmakers on their Crimean voyage said.
"It is necessary to visit a place yourself in order to understand how things are," the French lawmaker stressed.
Commenting on the position of Crimean Tatars during his stay in Sevastopol, Mariani said they did not look unhappy at all.
"Lots of distorted information is roaming around Europe. I met Crimean Tatars in Yalta. They did not look unhappy at all. On the contrary, they invited me to attend their forum and said that after Crimea’s reunification with Russia their language was granted official status," Mariani said.

So, let’s see where we are now: Ukrainian/Western anti-Russian propaganda has been based on 3 alleged accusations:
1. Annexation of Crimea;
2. Presence of Russian regular troops in SE Ukraine (no adequate proof has been presented);
3. Downing of Malaysian Boeing more than a year ago (no adequate proof has been resented).
As soon as the Western world figures out all above has been lies, all anti-Russian propaganda will collapse as a house of cards and it will be “Game over” for Kiev Junta. As we can see, 'Accusation N 1' is about to fade away, that’s why official Kiev was so scared to death and so mad about French lawmakers’ visit to Crimea.
