Not annexation but occupation of Crimea

As long as we use inaccurate (I would say, false) definitions:

- "annexation" of Crimea instead of "occupation", "attempted annexation" of Crimea or "illegal annexation";

- "counter-offensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine" instead of "summer-autumn campaign of the Armed Forces of Ukraine";

- security "guarantees" instead of security "assurances", -

we may suffer again from the current problems or future negative consequences caused by inflated expectations.

This can have serious negative consequences.

Such manipulations must be stopped immediately!
