Crimea has a complicated history and its relationship to/autonomy within Ukraine has been the subject of various high level discussions since 1991.
Do you know how many places have a complicated history with ethnic Germans all over the world? None of them are German territory and rightfully so.
If the crimean population wanted to secede they could have chosen a legitimate process that involves petitioning the UN, the EU, Ukraine and Russia. This has been an illegal invasion and annexation by Russia since 2014 with a half-hearted attempt at legitimization - after resettling the Ukrainians living there.
None of that is complicated, so kindly stop sprouting Russian propaganda
Wtf dude of course it has been an illegal invasion and annexation. The majority of the Crimean population until 2014 clearly did not want to be part of Russia. (And that changed since 2014 because Russia forcibly deported people). Crimea is not Russia.
That does not change the fact that Crimea has had a unique status and is not comparable to the Donbas. The Donbas is an integral part of Ukraine. Crimea has been an autonomous republic and has tried multiple times to use a legitimate process to widen their powers, which Ukraine's centralized state model did not approve of.
Your mom has a complicated history.
Your mom is incapable of an informed opinion and sees the world black and white
My mom has a polisci degree - and the common sense not to mumble 'well Crimea might be Ukraine' in the goddamn Ukraine community.
