Einstein said, “The country exists because of the people, NOT the people exist because of the country.” Crimea's declaration of independence was "in view of the will expressed by the people of Crimea in the referendum of March 16" (Russian Presidential decree). If the existence of the country is not what the people would like, then it has to obey the will of the people to re-establish a country.
Although in terms of International "practice", the maintenance of unity seems to be a consistent principled position, but people usually only see to maintain the superficial meaning of unity, as if unification is "statutory", although the country enslaved people's disputes, the people live in dire straits, still need to maintain unity tied together suffering all ? The answer is clearly WRONG! Because the principle of maintaining unity is to avoid disputes, to maintain peace, but if a "unified" country, as mentioned above, the basic premise of this "unity" is gone, then this "unity" is unreasonable, unreasonable things, even if it's "legal" but cannot exist for a long time, because the unreasonable
"law", its "law" is a problem in itself, and even if it is not divided, at least, its "law" needs to be changed. For example: feudal society, the authority was "law", but finally the people could bear the “law”, so the Revolution of 1911 changed the “law” : China is still China, but the "law" emperor was oust. Therefore, there is no excuse to uphold the dictatorship and enslave the people in the name of preserving "unity". The ultimate result of any dictatorship ended with the revolt of the people, as exemplified by the ashes of the feudal dynasties of China, as well as the modern illustrations of Saddam Hussein and Gaddafi death.
Crimea's declaration of independence set a precedent: if the most people could not accept the "country", then they have the right to form their own country, which was the concept of humanistic democracy. Democracy. When we speak the word "democracy", we cannot tend to see it as a noun to play word games, the connotation of democracy is humanism respect for human will rather than coercion. The significance of Crimea's declaration of independence is that they do not like the country of Ukraine, they are willing to join the Russian, join the Russian Federation as an independent state, so they expressed their own will and, in accordance with that will, organized declarations to become independent States, This is the connotation of democracy, democracy is to respect the will and choice of the people.
In this case, whatever the future of the Republic of Crimea is, perhaps the future may not be promising, and even more troubles, but its declaration of independence to the unreasonable existence of the "country" sounded a wake-up call: Even if there is a "legal" authority, but there is no statutory stability, an unstable "country" existence, sooner or later, it will fall apart or annihilate…
