One of Ukraine’s most important objectives in the war against Russia is to recapture the occupied Crimean Peninsula from Russian control. Many analysts and politicians said it wasn’t possible - but it’s now beginning to happen. Let’s talk more about how Ukraine is sieging Crimea, destroying Russia’s air defense systems and Crimea’s infrastructure, including oil terminals and the Kerch Strait Bridge.

Definitely a bit of Youtube Title Hyperbole, but this is a severe development in Crimea for russia and the weakness it domestically and internationally exposes about russia.

    I sure hope Ukraine gets it back and a big chunk of russia on top. No nation should get away with disrespecting territorial integrity.

    If we ever want world peace, which there wasn’t in at least 5400 years, we need nations to respect borders.
