Original Note:
Russia started its annexation of Crimea on Feb 20th 2014: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medal_%22For_the_Return_of_Crimea%22 http://www.profi-forex.org/novosti-rossii/entry1008208512.html At that point, Viktor Yanukovych was still president of Ukraine. He'd sign an agreement calling for new elections on the 21st, and flee to Russia on the 22nd. https://www.bbc.com/russian/rolling_news/2014/02/140221_rn_yanukovich_preliminary_elections https://www.nytimes.com/2015/01/04/world/europe/ukraine-leader-was-defeated-even-before-he-was-ousted.html Yanukovych was anti-NATO; Russia invaded regardless. https://web.archive.org/web/20100121145322/http://www.kyivpost.com/news/politics/detail/56539
