Sevastopol

The EU has forgotten (or more likely, its unelected bureaucrats are ignorant of) the fact that Russia will hold her need for her Black Sea naval base - and the access that gives her - as vital to her interests - it is within what used to be recognised as the Russian (USSR) sphere of influence.
 
Stupid of the EU and unbelievably naive of Obama to not realise that.
 
A nation does not easily forget 25 million war dead nor which near neighbour was influential in that.
 
Putting it diplomatically.
