I pray for my country that they never gonna implement similar tools here...

If Putin feels empowered after annexing Crimea, is there a possible threat that he may try to take some parts of eastern Ukraine as well?

This is very worrying.

I hope Russia don't try and annex anymore countries.

According to the West
Left picture: Legitimate power comes in Kiev
Right picture: Russian military lawlessness.

Can I borrow your language for a couple of minutes to tell you something, or should I address you in my own language?
