  LL> "The Government of Ukraine prevents foreigners, including U.S.

For a while there is no need for a visa to travel from Russia to Urkaine 
and back. Hundreds of thousands of the Ukrainian travel into Crimea as 
tourists, as well as millions of people from Russia. As for foreigners 
they can go to Crimea only through Russia.

  ak>> It happened because few green men prevented the Ukrainian troops

  ak>> situation that is now in eastern Ukraine.

  LL> Crimea, and all of Ukraine, was a very peaceful place just a few

It is a strange war. Millions of the Ukrainian have still been going to 
Russia for work; people from Russia travel to Ukraine and opposite. Even 
the civil people from "terrorists occupied" eastern territories can go 
into Kiev's held areas and back through checkpoints. There is still 
trade between Russia and Ukraine, Russia supplies Ukraine with a lot of 
electricity, oil, natural gas, accepts spent fuel from the Ukrainian 
atomic stations.

The problems is that the present Kiev authority is not capable to 
compromise with the rebel regions. All they want is an unconditional 
surrender and making the Russian people forget they are the Russian. 
There is a crazy idea that Ukraine is a monolithic, unilateral country 
inhabited by the Ukrainian.

Bye, Lee!
