Weren't there troops that entered and stuff? Or am I just confusing it with some other event, or was tricked by the MSM? I thought I remember it going down differently, but I was also more of a lib at the time.
No the Russian troops in Crimea were basically administering the whole region as part of the port lease as it was providing their only warm-water port. There was essentially no difference day to day whatsoever. The framing of it as an invasion is madness.
There were already Russian Troops there (Much like how there used to be Russian Troops in the Soviet Base area in Syria). I think they did sent more Russian Troops to help the local Crimean Police and National Guard soldiers organize security against Ukraine or Pro-Ukraine militias.
Are you thinking of South Ossetia?
Maybe? No idea lol.
