Actually according to Crimeans who voted
See you may want to do your research as the OP has thought of it and has authored threads discussing it.
or do you agree they have been lying the whole time?
So the truth is childish and naive...care top explain?

The op has omitted he has an agenda and Is anti Putin
Personally I think he's not even telling the truth with that,he's anti Russian as most of his posts here will show
Then why is his op talking about this weapon as proof for their involvement, and not about the simple fact that he is part of the peace talks?
They have been lying the whole time just like the West has been lying about their involvement.
That's naive and childish.
Now grow up.

The reason is because Russia has denied that they are supplying weapons to the separatists, but of course when military hardware shows up on the battlefield that Ukraine does not have and only Russia uses shows they aren't just an innocent party to the events in Ukraine.
Ehm, isn't the fact that Putin is a player in these peace talks enough indication that Russia is involved in the war?
Well one would think that now wouldn't they, but as you can see in many threads on Ukraine that isn't the case.
Apparently the OP of this thread didn't think of it either.

So your saying the US has sent military offensive weapons to Ukraine while saying they haven't...care to provide that proof, because the US has shown what they are sending and it has to be approved by congress, which Obama can't just go around.
imagine that your comments are just as childish as you say others are.
Apparently you believe that Russia is the only bad guy, and that the West can do no wrong.
How childish and naive can you get?
You really think this whole thing wasn't started by the EU trying to annex the Ukraine?
What choice did that give Russia?
My point was, why did the op have to talk about this weapon when the fact that Putin is part of the peace talks alone, is obvious proof that he is involved in the war?
Funny, but I didn't see Russia doing this in other countries they used to have control over that signed with and became part of the EU...so why all of the sudden this is a big problem?
But Ukraine is also a breadbasket, a natural gas chokepoint, and a nation of 45 million people in a pivotal spot north of the Black Sea. Ukraine matters—to Russia, Europe, the U.S., and even China. President Obama denied on Feb. 19 that it’s a piece on “some Cold War chessboard.” But the best hope for Ukraine is that it will get special treatment precisely because it is a valued pawn in a new version of the Great Game, the 19th century struggle for influence between Russia and Britain.
And apparently your comprehension skills are a bit off, because as I have said and you can look at my posts to verify this, but it isn't the Russian people themselves that I have a problem with it is the Russian government that I have a problem with and the actions they have taken as of late. There is a diference.
THe same choice they had when other former territories became part of the EU.
Is this simplified enough for you to understand the reason.

And you don't?
The agenda is Denying Ignorance...something many on here have forgotten how to do.

It was more for those who consistently deny Russia is involved in Ukraine. Those who constantly demand proof of the obvious.
This is their proof.

Also you do understand they had no choice as to whether they want to stay as part of Ukraine...why didn't they have that choice?

According to Putin Crimea is no longer part of Ukraine. Furthermore in order for these systems to reach separatist hands they would still have to be gifted by Russia. Something Putin has said isn't happening.
Until the people of Ukraine decide what they want to do about Crimea it is what it is - illegally occupied territory of Ukraine by the Russian Federation.
I don't think Ukraine is going to just let it go. Hell even Russians in Crimea are now starting to complain.
