LU Prof Talks More Ukraine

Lakehead University political science professor Laure Paquette says the Russian government continues to control the message on Crimea during the crisis in Ukraine   With people  in the peninsula set to vote in an independence referendum on the weekend comes word that the Kremlin will consider whether or not Crimea should join Russia or remain with Ukraine in legislation to be discussed March 21st.  Paquette says this is a move most likely being made for appearances and they will continue to say and do things the Western world believes are wrong all along claiming a democratic process is taking place in Crimea.
