The Crimea always was russian, I think Putin is doing this to show what a Pussy Obongo is and to punish him for interferining with the Ukraine, just wait untill the EU (who also crapped on his doorstep) needs his gas, they will pay then and quite right too!
Oh yes, they are absolutely doing this to piss in OFAILs face and loving every minute of it.
Think of it as a Russian golden shower for Barry the golfing boy.
Gulf of Mexico? Caribbean? I’m sure Putin is familiar with the Monroe Doctrine.
Sadly, not sure president (small p) Obola is.
