Actions don’t exist in a vacuum & in pure objectivity especially after acknowledging that there is a dispute. Being a thirsty traveller doesn’t make your statements devoid of opinion.

I didn’t state that they were puppet states, I did state Russia has military involvement in the north of Ukraine & had involvement in South Ossetia War. One has to be in wilful denial to dispute that.


Nobody is disputing anything such. As for South Ossetia war, not even official Russian channels.

The only opinion stated by listing disputed areas as 'disputed' is that we do not take anyone's personal ideology into consideration when selecting what to include.

In that case, why is there no Islamic State on ratebeer? the area is clearly disputed and we should not let our idealogy stop us from entering it. Although you won't get a lot of ticks there I suppose.

Yep. Both Koreas, too.

Also Switzerland, because Libya wanted to divide it and split it up into its neighboring countries a couple of years ago because they investigated against Gaddafi's son.

Should their borders have been fixed for a decade or so, they could have been listed eventually.
Although total absence of beer would not necessarily drive the urgency of inclusion.

so is Israel in that case?

Anyway, in the case of Catalonia we all know that if Spain says it's ok, every other country in the world will, too. This seems like a situation that will have a resolution at some point, clear enough to take action.
