US and EU supports Russia's annexation of Crimea in exchange for Russian and EU support of the United States annexation of Cuba and the United States and Russia supporting the restoration of the Hapsburg monarchy in Mexico.  Then partition the Ukraine into two protectorates, the east in the Russian sphere of influence and the west in the European.  Everybody wins.   :bowler:

This was before I learned that possessing the Ukraine would make the European Union a great power.  In addition to the plan above Quebec should be made a US protectorate in order to preserve the balance of power.   Once again, everybody wins; especially English Canada.  :bowler:

In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, they had five hundred years of democracy and peace—and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock
