Has your opinion of Russia changed pre- and post Crimean occupation?


I'm not sure if any UN member state have ever gained a territory by conquest, but I would associate this behavior with Idi Amin or Kadhafi, if I had to guess.
I never expected Russia to respect its treaties, but to formally fulfill international law, especially how much cheaper it would be not to invade Crimea. There was no strong anti-Ukrainian sentiment nor threat for Russian interests in Ukraine, AFAIK. This was like invasion of Afghanistan, today.
