Similar to an earlier comment I made, if Norther Cyprus had more than 350k people in it, the world would probably care more.

So I agree you’re right, but I also hope you agree that Ukraine is very different.

Population size doesn’t matter. What only matters is strong army willing to repeal aggressor. What could help Ukraine is that Russian soldiers don’t want to fight for Putin and oligarchs.

You think it's similarly difficult to annex a land of 300k and a land of 44m? Ok.
