Please look somewhere how many people living in regions I mentioned have Ukrainian as a native language.
Crimea is the only "autonomous" republic inside Ukraine, and it's a Russian republic. And their kids can't study at school in their native language. Ukrainians are (and always were) a minority in Crimea, dwelling in Northern steppes, maybe a dozen of villages or so.
Recent actions of "orange" loonies are clearly against Russian-speaking population. Like courts working in Ukrainian only, so in Donbass it will be next to impossible to find any lawers able to work in this conditions.
I don't want any "territorial expansion", I want common sence to be used and I want my family to live in a normal country, not run by lunatic nationalistic minority. Last time I visited relatives in Urkaine was 2 years ago, after 10 years, and I really liked what I saw. They are doing fine, in some fields - much better then we in our "Russiania", so I am all for independant Ukraine if people there want it.
