    Turkey's Erdogan says Russia must return Crimea to Ukraine
  • They won't even return the occupied part of Cyprus. Honestly I'm surprised that Russia still didn't try to use that one for propaganda, since the Turkish claims are very similar to Russian ones and it's a wedge between two NATO members.
