If Putin has agreed to rent Crimea from Ukraine, that's a de facto (and de jure) recognition of Ukraine's underlying property rights there. They own the land and the fixtures thereon, the renter owns only that which cannot be detached from the land and has only a possessory interest, lasting only as long as rent is paid, then there's a reversion to the grantor - Ukraine. And usually renters do not own mineral rights. So that's very interesting.

Putin would have been a lot better off if he'd simply negotiated mineral rights leases, instead of invading. In the present case, he's bound to end up with nothing - and that's already begun, apparently, with the lease agreement for Crimea
