Such a conflict would have inevitably drawn in Russia and Turkey. Russia had large numbers of troops in the Crimea within the former Soviet Black Sea Fleet. Ukraine also was a nuclear military power until 1996.This book analyses two inter-related issues. Firstly, it answers the question why Ukraine-Crimea-Russia traditionally have been a triangle of conflict over a region that Ukraine, Tatars and Russia have historically claimed. Secondly, it explains why inter-ethnic violence was averted in Ukraine despite Crimea possessing many of the ingredients that existed for Ukraine to follow in the footsteps of inter-ethnic strife in its former Soviet neighbourhood in Moldova (Trans-Dniestr), Azerbaijan (Nagorno Karabakh), Georgia (Abkhazia, South Ossetia), and Russia (Chechnya). 410 0$aSoviet and post-Soviet politics and society ;$v47. 607 $aCrimea (Ukraine)$xEthnic relations 607 $aUkraine$xForeign relations$zRussia (Federation) 607 $aRussia (Federation)$xForeign relations$zUkraine 676 $a947.71 700 $aKuzio$b Taras$4aut$0756517 702 $aUmland$b Andreas$4edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910971862303321 996 $aUkraine-Crimea-Russia$93968625 997 $aUNINA
