But you understand the nato expansion issue? You understand why russia acting like it acts?
Is it because Russia has a totalitarian dictatorship that is ostensibly threatened by an emerging democracy in Ukraine; Who's people are so similar to Russians, would demonstrate to Russians that even lowly Ukrainians can have a functioning democracy?
Furthermore the complete clusterfuck of autonomy created within the Soviet Union over the administration of Crimea and the Russian navy base at Sevastopol?
Is there really a tangible threat to Russians from NATO? Or is democratic expansion a threat to Russia's authoritarian regime? If there are tangible threats to Russians, what are they?
Is it enough to justify Russia's invasion with 2 words? "NATO expansion"
If you believe it is, prove it.
