Both things are true.You keep changing your story about why Putin invaded
At first it was because Putin wanted to liberate native Russian in Donbass
Now you make up a lie that it was because Ukraine was trying to join NATO. They weren’t
They had multiple reasons to invade.
You may not like it, but that is irrelevant. The point is Russia had their reasons, and it was all due to the US meddling in Ukraine’s affairs, like supporting the coup in 2014 and dictating to the Ukrainians who they were allowed to run as President.
Remember the Nuland phone call? “Fuck the EU”?
