I never said it JUSTIFIES the war. In fact I said the very opposite. It does, however, justify accepting the status quo, getting a peace deal done and moving on. It's Russian now, frankly it should have been Russian all along, the way Ukraine got it at the first place was not "democratic" and "fair" either. Some people say that recognizing Crimea is a no starter, so no peace talks until Putin drops this point. I don't get why. No point in bleeding over it, let Russia have it, get peace agreement and move on.
