Seriously? Nato would never lease Crimea to Russia.. and Ukraine is nothing like the Baltics to Russia. Sure you can find superficial comparisons. I doubt Ukraine really tries to take Crimea anyway. We'll see, I might be way off on that one. Crimea certainly doesn't want that. It might be a ploy to set-up negotions (hopefully). It’s very reckless to allow it. I think it’s a coin toss nukes or some other escalation is in play in the case of Crimea..The Baltics block off Kaliningrad from Russia.
Ukraine is no different; if Russia wants access to a seaport in Crimea, it can LEASE the port, just like the US does with its naval bases and army bases around the world.
