I must admit I am not well versed on what's going on, so many different world conflicts at the minute. So as I understand it Ukraine has been unstable for a while and the country has decended into civil war and the president/primeminister has been ousted. Now is Russia seeing its chance to claim land on a weakened state or are they simply reorganising their current military bases located in Ukraine to protect their interests.

Basically is this a power grab? I hate how little I can keep abreast of world politics, I am trying now though..
