This time he went too far. He got away with Crimea, he can't be allowed to get away with any more. NATO expanded because of his actions, and because of him NATO still even has reason to exist. For a while there it seemed like NATO was no longer needed. Putin showed us that's not true.

Russia had a treaty with Ukraine that they would not try to join NATO
Afghanistan money drain gets shut down by Trump Biden admin rigged into office Ukraine is offered the money we were previously dumping into Afghanistan, and more, to start the NATO application Russia sees weapons amassing in Ukraine and finds secret bio labs (after COVID/Wuhan release) existing yet being denied in Western media Ukraine joining NATO is discovered by Russia Russia kicks Ukraine's ass Welcome to the current moment, stop pretending this was because of Russia being some barbarian invader | ||

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 | |||

If Russia doesn't want NATO countries on it's border, it shouldn't be invading Ukraine - taking Ukraine as a Russian territory will put Poland, Slovakia, Hungary and Romania on it's border...

NATO exists to prevent Russia from doing exactly what it did. Ukraine didn't join NATO soon enough. Don't believe Putin's talking points about NATO building up having anything to do with this war. He was talking about removing fascists from Ukraine too. He will use whatever justification he wants to invade and conquer. He's ex-Soviet, a dying breed.
He always lamented it's dissolution and thinks Ukraine is still Russian and not a sovereign nation. Ukraine has the oil, fertile land and access to the Black Sea that Putin desperately wants. He figured with Biden in office it was the perfect time to take as much as he could. He did it in 2014 and no one opposed him. Give a man like that a taste of what he can get away with and he's guaranteed to do it again. We saw that in the 1930s. Neville Chamberlain proclaimed about peace in our time but giving someone like Hitler or Putin what they want without opposition, or in the name of peace, only justifies their pursuits. Promises are worth jack squat on the geopolitical stage when someone like Putin is in charge of Russia.
