That was confirmed on March 18, 2014, when Vladimir Putin signed a treaty to make Crimea part of Russia (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.rferl.org\/a\/putin-to-visit-crimea-to-mark-five-years-since-peninsula-rejoined-russia\/29826559.html\">https:\/\/www.rferl.org\/a\/putin-to-visit-crimea-to-mark-five-years-since-<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>In 2014, Crimea voted to leave Ukraine and become part of Russia. Russia later accepted the territory, which it had long wanted. Crimea has been a fairly poor region that felt neglected and discriminated against by the western portion of Ukraine. Many in Donbas also have felt neglected (or worse) by western Ukraine and have long wanted to be closer to Russia. It should be noted that the USA and some of its allies called the referendum in Crimea to be part of Russia some type of a sham, yet the reality is that the majority in Crimea wanted to be part of Russia.<\/p>\n<p>The USA would not accept the vote by the Crimeans primarily because it seems to want to stop Russia from expanding. The USA pushed for international sanctions with Europe, many of which still remain, in an effort to hope Russia would release Crimea to Ukraine.<\/p>\n<p>The USA&#8217;s position seemed to be based mainly on politics as opposed to its professed belief in democracy.<\/p>\n<p>Even though the USA and many in Europe have wanted Russia to leave Crimea, on March 18, 2019, I posted:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>It remains my view that Crimea and at least parts of eastern Ukraine will ultimately align with Russia.<\/p>\n<p>International sanctions will not stop biblical prophecies from being fulfilled.

The various sanctions announced by the USA and the Europeans look to be political punishment, as opposed to being announced by those who seriously believe that they will get Russia to cede the Donbas back to Ukrainian control (it would probably take a pro-Russian government in Kiev for Russia to do that).<\/p>\n<p>While the earliest time period for when such peoples will get together is not specified in scripture, the Bible foretells a time when the &#8220;Kings of the Medes&#8221; will get together. Many in Russia, Ukraine, and Moldova have descent from the ancient Medes.<\/p>\n<p>Bible prophecy, as well as ancient origins of various peoples, are normally ignored by the major media.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, notice that the Bible teaches that the \u2018kings of the Medes\u2019 will one day turn against the final end time Babylon power, which will be based in Europe:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>1 The burden against Babylon which Isaiah the son of Amoz saw\u2026<\/p>\n<p>17 \u201cBehold, I will stir up the Medes against them,<br \/>\nWho will not regard silver;<br \/>\nAnd as for gold, they will not delight in it.<br \/>\n18 Also their bows will dash the young men to pieces,<br \/>\nAnd they will have no pity on the fruit of the womb;<br \/>\nTheir eye will not spare children.<br \/>\n19 And Babylon, the glory of kingdoms,<br \/>\nThe beauty of the Chaldeans\u2019 pride,<br \/>\nWill be as when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah. (Isaiah 13:1, 17-19)<\/p>\n<p>11 Make the arrows bright!<br \/>\nGather the shields!<br \/>\nThe Lord has raised up the spirit of the kings of the Medes.<br \/>\nFor His plan is against Babylon to destroy it,<br \/>\nBecause it is the vengeance of the Lord,<br \/>\nThe vengeance for His temple. (Jeremiah 51:11)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>This will ultimately not end well for Europe, but is not to occur until nearly 3 1\/2 years after the start of the Great Tribulation. Notice that this will involve a people from the north (Russia is the only major power north of much of Europe):<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>50:41 <strong>\u201cBehold, a people shall come from the north,<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong> And a great nation and many kings <\/strong><br \/>\n<strong> Shall be raised up from the ends of the earth<\/strong>.<br \/>\n42 They shall hold the bow and the lance;<br \/>\nThey are cruel and shall not show mercy.<br \/>\nTheir voice shall roar like the sea;<br \/>\nThey shall ride on horses,<br \/>\nSet in array, like a man for the battle,<br \/>\n<strong>Against you, O daughter of Babylon<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>43 \u201cThe king of Babylon has heard the report about them,<br \/>\nAnd his hands grow feeble;<br \/>\nAnguish has taken hold of him,<br \/>\nPangs as of a woman in childbirth\u2026\u201d(Jeremiah 50:41-43).<\/p>\n<p>8 O daughter of Babylon, who are to be destroyed,<br \/>\nHappy the one who repays you as you have served us!<br \/>\n9 Happy the one who takes and dashes<br \/>\nYour little ones against the rock! (Psalms 137:8-9)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Biblical prophecies can be trusted. Various of the peoples of the Medes will align with Russia.<\/p>\n<p>On the Sabbath of February 5, 2922, I gave a sermonette where I mentioned that lands associated with Ukraine would end up being confederate with Russia:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<div id=\"contents\" class=\"style-scope ytd-shelf-renderer\">\n<div id=\"scroll-container\" class=\"style-scope yt-horizontal-list-renderer\">\n<div id=\"items\" class=\"style-scope yt-horizontal-list-renderer\">\n<div id=\"dismissible\" class=\"style-scope ytd-grid-video-renderer\">\n<p><a class=\"yt-simple-endpoint inline-block style-scope ytd-thumbnail\" tabindex=\"-1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=0fpKTSPXQBM\" rel=\"null\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"img\" class=\"style-scope yt-img-shadow\" src=\"https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/0fpKTSPXQBM\/hqdefault.jpg?sqp=-oaymwEcCPYBEIoBSFXyq4qpAw4IARUAAIhCGAFwAcABBg==&amp;rs=AOn4CLC5ZKwoY8k9rDfkpr0XmfKRY9uLLQ\" alt=\"\" width=\"210\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div id=\"overlays\" class=\"style-scope ytd-thumbnail\"><span id=\"text\" class=\"style-scope ytd-thumbnail-overlay-time-status-renderer\" aria-label=\"21 minutes, 20 seconds\"> 21:20<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"details\" class=\"style-scope ytd-grid-video-renderer\">\n<div id=\"meta\" class=\"style-scope ytd-grid-video-renderer\">\n<h3 class=\"style-scope ytd-grid-video-renderer\"><a id=\"video-title\" class=\"yt-simple-endpoint style-scope ytd-grid-video-renderer\" title=\"Russia, Ukraine, Babylonian Europe, and Prophecy\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=0fpKTSPXQBM\" aria-label=\"Russia, Ukraine, Babylonian Europe, and Prophecy by BibleNewsProphecy 7 hours ago 21 minutes 80 views\">Russia, Ukraine, Babylonian Europe, and Prophecy<\/a><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><span class=\"style-scope yt-formatted-string\" dir=\"auto\">The situation between Russia and Ukraine has again heated up, although it has been tense since the Euromaiden protests and Russia\u2019s annexation of Crimea.

Are prophecies in the Bible associated with the \u2018kings of the Medes\u2019 and a power from the \u201cnorth country\u201d related to any in Russia and Ukraine? Is a confederation of powers from the north, east, and central Asia prophesied to destroy the coming end time European Babylon? Will the destruction be reminiscent of what happened to Sodom and Gomorrah? How is the King of the North and who will destroy him? Do those in Russia and Ukraine have a hope of salvation?
