      Everything is done under military occupation if you're not on the side of the ruling power

      Yeah but it was under Russian military occupation because most of the people in Crimea either were Russian Navy, being part of the Black Sea Fleet operating out of Sevastopol, or worked for the Black Sea Fleet in some capacity. The Russian military didn't have to invade Crimea, they were already there as one of the main economic and social institutions of the region.
