Ask NATO or Russia to hold the referendum. They can hold one in a specific region, unlike Urkaine

Enclave, you will allow them to go if they wish to go.
You do not know if it was fear that caused it, or if it was legitimate. There were parties when the Russian's arrived.

Even without the Russian military, given a referendum they would likely join Russia. The whole Ukrainian politic is based on making it extremely difficult to hold referendums on these questions so that Crimea can't secede. They do this because Crimea is the most productive region of Ukraine. Crimea, in a straight vote, would EASILY get over 66% support to join Russia.

Shame.

Realistically an election in Ukraine held by the Ukrainian government would likely be influenced to keep the land within Ukraine and just do it as a political move to stop Russia for calling for one that they would hold.

If you want something to do, have Crimea try to rebel, or try to join the EU.

Canada does not need an aircraft carrier. Go fix Attawapiskat and Keystone first. Then get a half decent destroyer and frigate fleet. If China is just getting its ACs now, I can guarantee Canada does not need one. Infact, seeing as the USA is basically protecting Canada, you should be focusing on infrastructure and oil production before even thinking of your military.

No it isn't it might not be a good idea but Ukraine has a right to decide its future without NATO or Russia. It doesn't need their stamp of approval but it is illeagal for Russia or NATO to hold a referendum in Ukraine without Ukraine's approval.

We discuses something similar with Spain and Catalonia. Conclusion, Spain doesn't want referendum, no referendum

If Ukraine wants referendum they get referendum

It's more of if Crimea (or any other area suing for independence) wants a referendum then Crimea gets one but it should be overseen by the international community.

I said, his major Raw Materials imports are gone. So in turn, unless he didn't find another person to make up these losses, his economy would falter. And many people in the Berlin Area speak Russian as well as German, and it would agitate them a little about what he cut off with Russia.

Staying in a falling state like Iraq is to risky for the Kurdish people, especially with the relation that the Kurds have with Jihadists. It'd be dangerous for the Kurds to stay so.

I'd recommend that the Kurds attempt to legitimize only their non-turkish claims before becoming too gung-ho about independence. Also, what kind of power projection and military strength do the Kurds have?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peshmerga

They have an actual military and they use it alot. Also Turkey has also granted Turkish Kurdistan autonomy, I may actually purchase the land if possible to remove an violent option. I'm only focusing on an Iraqi and Syrian offensive at the current point. Turkey and Iran are side goals which could be resolved with the purchasing of land.
