I would suggest that Crimea didn't "do" anything and a large percentage of people did not support this annexation. It's a complicated mess for a lot of people now.
This is pretty standard for a politician to say. It's exactly what the Yanokovich government said to protesters in the Maidan (which occurred after a ban of all organized protests, which really incensed people and they had to repeal the ban).Originally Posted by UhOhXplode
