Personally, I think this is an impossible situation and is all about damage control at this point. Is there a way to contain Russian interests without an armed conflict?
They U.S. should try to agitate separatist forces within Russian to keep them busy within their own borders, so they simply can't project power like they would like. The downside of this of course would be funneling arms to some groups connected to Islamic radicals (wouldn't be the first time though). Russia has a very big weak spot there.

It's not just about doing the right thing though, it's about fulfilling an agreement. The country is in a bit of chaos right now but that's Putin and Russia's doing. Allowing them to orchestrate this chaos to annex a sovereign nation is unacceptable. It's a tough situation tho I agree
