Why was Libya bombed?
Why did the West bomb Syria?
And why was that called Arab Spring, lol

so your idea of "legitimacy" is based on agreements? Agreements rarely are "legitimate" or timeless, they are often arbitrary or used as political tool.
A few of millions of examples of agreements going to shit:
UNSC "agreed" on a no fly zone in libya (nato bombed it to shit)
kranie/russia "agreed" on minsk 1 and 2. (ukraine bombed donbass to shit)
gorbachev and west "agreed" on no westward expansion (nato is at russias doorstep)
What agreement is there for US to be in syria, at TANEF? What international judgement? Are you trolling?
whenever you're confronted with undeniable facts you default to "b-b-but what about x, y, z?!?"
again, two wrongs don't make a right. ukraine is a sovereign nation with internationally recognised borders, which include crimea. that's a FACT. no lazy whataboutism will change that.
the gorbachev agreement is a lie, there is no such thing - as is the alleged donbass genocide. ukraine has every right to fight back russian invaders.
the simple truth is: russia doesn't have ANY better justification to invade ukraine than mexico has to attack the US or mongolia to invade russia. almost every single nation in the world could come up with countless historical grievances against any of its neighbours, but that does NOT legitimise wars to redraw internationally accepted and agreed upon borders.
