The Ukrainian Constitution was abolished by the terrorists.
The Constitutional Court of the Ukraine was also dismissed by these terrorists who threatened the judges.
If the Ukrainian Constitution was still in force, then the terrorists would have been arrested and persecuted, but this was not the case.
The terrorists were the one who abolished the Ukrainian Constitution, and now the old constitutional order does not exist any more, and the Russian population of the Russian Crimean peninsula (that was sold to the Soviet Ukraine by the Soviet dictator Khrushchev) does not have to stick to any constitution.
If the terrorists have already violated the existing constitution, how on earth can the others stick to this constitution?
Are you kidding?
Well, American constitution still exists, there was no Putsch in the USA yet, was there?
What would Obama do if armed terrorists overthrew the constitutional order in the USA?
The answer is obvious.
If some armed terrorists abolished the constitutional order in the USA, and then China, India and Russia recognised the terrorists as representatives of the USA, then the vote of the population of Texas would be perfectly acceptable and understandable.
BTW, that happened in Kosovo, nobody cared about the constitution of Serbia or Yugoslavia any more.
And the USA supported this process.
You cannot eat your cake and have it, too.
The hypocrisy of American elite is tooooooo right in your face, only fools and liars can deny that.
