hmm "Europe's borders cannot be redrawn by force", Kosovo supported by the US military breaks away from Serbia 

I think Putin feels justified 

B-b-but... the US *SAID* Kosovo can't be taken for precedent!

But yeah, this is the US that says it isn't subject to laws against genocide,
and has a law authorizing them to invade the Netherlands if a US citizen is brought there to be tried by the ICJ.

Don't worry, the US has a legal theory explaining how exactly the Kiev coup met the legal requirements of 3/4 majority for impeachment of president and procedural requirements for consulation with supreme court.  They really do.  It's just classified.

LOL some people just make me laugh so much.  Yeah, the Kosovo situation is just like the Crimean one!

Yeah, Russia hasn't bombed any cities


Yeah the Ukrainians aren't commiting Genocide.  Dear lord do you people live on the same planet as the rest of us?

So, being genocided is a prerequisite before such action is taken ? Is it based on an international regulation or law ? "Sorry you are not dead enough, it would be illegal".

Pretty much.

If you'll note, the main protests for the actions in Kosovo are to doubt the ethnic cleansing, argueing that it didn't happen.

Outside which, that's an actual you know... differentiation point.

and definitly a more credible position then "ceding due to ethnic cleansing, no....edeing to join us... yes."

(Not that such a thing is actual Russia's position.)
