Those that 1) see it as an integral campaign in the #CrimeanWar that brought Russia to the peace table and 2) those that don't.
And 1) those that actually talk about it and 2) those that simply do not.

While the Russians did make a determined effort to try and counter the British Flying Squadron in thr Sea of #Azov, with 50,000 soldiers deployed along the coast, the overall cost in lost animals, stores and buildings was immense #CrimeanWar

The Sea of #Azov campaign saw the birth of both the 19c gunboat and more inventive flating batteries. All of which were used to attack scores of coastal settlements #CrimeanWar

No it isn't #RussiaRussiaRussia, the AfD was quite clear why it did not support a #warInTheUkraine.
Same reasons as 1941-45 which also did not work.
Time to end the #GalicianCrusade, #CrimeanWar etc.
No one beats Russia on flat ground. Ever.
And they always stop at the Carpathian Hills.

#Banderite ideology not only descends directly and often genetically ( #BlaiseMetrewell, #ChrystiaFreeland) from WW2 #Nazis, it has revived their symbols and goals. This of course has a deeper history back to #SymonPetliura or #DanielOfGalicia. Ultimately a UK & FR scam to finally win #CrimeanWar.
