The forceful secession of Crimea, is war IMHO. I hope that the new Ukrainian government will be smart enough to give way to Russian in Sevastopol, even that IMHO Crimea does not belong to Russia at all but to the Tatars that where exiled by Stalin and trickled back slowly during the last 15 years. My hope is that the EU under Merkel leadership will clarify to Putin that he may get a bloody nose if he intervene. OB is a looser so I have no hope of anything from his administration, even that the local Russians blame the US for intervention. For Russia to take over Crimea is a great economic burden, for the Russian it is easy to annex Crimea via Kerch and finally finishing the bridge that is on planing for years. IMHO Crimea has nothing to offer to Russia except pride and some wineries, access to the Mediterranean is same as via Novorosiysk or Gelendzhik with a natural port but in each case they have the problem of Istanbul to sail afar. As for the US or NATO they already sit in Constantza adn Burgaz, so no need for Sevastopol as a military sea port, it is all about pride not economic interests
