I saw that, pretty much the guy was saying that they want to take Crimea because they would then control the major Port that is there, the old Ukraine Government were Pro-Russian and Russia believe that the next Government may not be, thus they want to secure that port before the new Government are sworn in and decide not to renew their lease or contract they had. That is cliffnotes version, I'm sure a quick search on reddit.com will find the better answer. It was in the explain like I'm 5 sub reddit, if that helps.
