NO.
Yes! They did! After there was Civil unrest in Ukraine, Putin invaded Ukraine to "Protect the Russians there" Even though Crimea is thousands of miles from Ukraine. Putin held a vote in Crimea, and majority wanted to join Russia, so Crimea is now Russia. Currently the war in the East is Pro-Russian separatists (People who want to join Russia). Putin supplies them, but he does not actually have soldiers in Ukraine at the moment.
