And might those ethnic Russians have been there due to a sustained campaign on the part of the Soviets to depopulate the region of ethnic Ukrainians and replace them with ethnic Russians as part of a plan to increase loyalty of the region to the central Soviet authority?

Literally the exact opposite happened. The Soviets did a Ukrainization campaign to support and popularize Ukrainian language, literature and culture in regions where it had previously been marginal at best. Ukrainians were disproportionately represented in the leadership positions of the Soviet state. The Soviet Union was extremely pro-Ukrainian.

Russia was invading militarily Crimea well before 2014

Lol, do you mean the lease agreement in which Ukraine was getting a ton of money for the Russian naval base in Crimea? Is that your definition of "invading"?

《联合国宪章》专门设立敌国条款，规定德意日等法西斯或军国主义国家的任何一国有再次实施侵略政策的任何步骤，中法苏英美等联合国创始成员国有权对其直接实施军事行动，无须安理会授权。

"The Charter of the United Nations specifically establishes an enemy state clause, stipulating that if any of the fascist or militaristic states like Germany, Italy, or Japan takes any step to once again implement a policy of aggression, the founding members of the United Nations, such as China, France, the Soviet Union, the United Kingdom, and the United States, have the right to take direct military action against it without the authorization of the Security Council."
