What the fuck source are you even quoting from?
NATO aggression is one of Putin’s favorite talking points. If you’re just going to parrot his propaganda then no one rational should listen to anything you have to say.
Moscow responded by backing Ukrainian Russian speakers’ demands for the minority rights
Where “backing” means “sending Russian military across the Ukrainian border illegally in order to conduct an invasion based on a flimsy pretext”, yeah, Russia backed them.

Ah yes, from all those times NATO invaded Russia, clearly.

OK so now you’re admitting that Russia broke the peace intentionally because of ‘fear’, and moving the goalpost you set earlier about Ukraine not wanting peace.
Classic bad-faith argument practice.

yes russia broke international law, but everyone and their mother knew about putin’s position and pressed it until it was determined from russian perspective that there was no alternative. by the way, international law-- why is it that the USA/israel can ignore it with impunity?
