You're falling into the Iraq War trap. The entity that goaded the conflict has somehow justified it's existence and all the pointless wars, massive military budgets and expansion that go along with that. Have you forgotten Libya?
Russia doesn't want NATO military bases, troops and weapons on it's border. Like I said before, NATO was aggressively expanding, particularly in former Soviet satellite states which they promised they would not do. NATO was dangling the NATO carrot in front Ukraine and poking the bear
This goes back years. It's been heating up since Bush/Obama when red lines were declared by Russia and repeatedly ignored hth

Redlines declared by Russia don’t matter. It’s a commie shit hole allied with Iran and China. All three can get fucked
