MOSCOW, July 17 (Reuters) - The refusal of Ukraine and NATO powers to recognise Moscow's authority over Crimea represents a "systemic threat" for Russia, former Russian president Dmitry Medvedev said on Sunday.

"If any other state, be it Ukraine or NATO countries, believes that Crimea is not Russian, then this is a systemic threat for us," Medvedev told World War Two veterans, the Interfax news agency reported.

His comments were aired a day after a Ukrainian official suggested that Crimea, which most of the world still recognises as part of Ukraine, could be a target for U.S.-made HIMARS missiles, recently deployed by Kyiv as it battles Russian forces.

The leadership of Ukraine expects Judgment Day in the event of an attack on the Crimea, said Dmitry Medvedev. It is reported by TASS. The deputy chairman added that “for all of them there, Judgment Day will come at once – very fast and hard,” if the attack on the peninsula takes place.

I said it before and I say it again that Crimea (legally part of the Russian Federation) needs to be left alone.  Right or wrong, Ukraine taking it back is simply too risky for Ukraine itself and everybody else.

"Don't attack Crimea! We attacked it first 9 years ago!" What a repulsive small testicled man.
