for example, what happened in crimea, i did what i did because the russian people decided democratic means and let's see what happened in kosovo. no one in the west opposed that decision despite it not being very democratic. so, should we accept these types of activities or not? there should be no double standard. the sanctions that you imposed against the crimea people, is it because of the and exation, how re these people responsible? what are the people to blame for? you should leave them alone and not impose sanctions and russia being peaceful and all good. we are peaceful and we are all good. indeed. as we heard statements that it's not going to move these words. is not going to expand those words. those were oral statements, not written statements, but we were betrayed. there was a waiver of expansion and nature oof military infrastructure is getting closer to our borders. are we supposed to react to that? who withdrew -- from the missile defense treaties? so as a result, we have to create systems to defend ourselves. withdrew, treaty who it wasn't us but it was the u.s. ok, th
