I have a coworker from Crimea and I spoke with him over lunch. His father is originally from Russia and his mother is from Crimea, and they currently live in Simferopol. He can talk to his parents over skype, but the phones are not working. They say is it calm in Simferopol, and just have to wait it out.
I asked him whether he thought Crimea should be a part of Ukraine or Russia and he said Russia.
