Nobody voted on that. It is breaking a peaceful and peace making treaty and is a act of war by itself.
Perhaps they should be offered a new vote to join the EU, US and/or NATO
I'm sure we could send plenty of voters to skew the election same as the Russians did.
We also have these international agreements to boarders and rights of waterways.
If Russia wishes to break them, then they should be null and void and not protect Russian coastlines and rights of passage and boarders as well.
Sounds like we could send a fleet in to investigate the new waterways.
But I'm sure they can make some crafty argument against that not applying !
