Ukraine was clearly a very divided country, east and west, Ukrainian or Russian speaking.
Geography is obviously a factor in that, the legacy of the Soviet Union and historic closeness/cultural similarity.
Actually though after 2014 Ukrainian nationality was far more clear and together in opposition to Russia annexing Crimea and fueling separatism.
Anyway, can you describe what you think the presumed narrative is?
And maybe what it doesn't make logical sense.
It makes no logical sense that Russia is imperialistic and has dreams of invading Western Ukraine, Poland, much less Germany. If that had been its plan it would have conscripted far more men to do so. that means the narrative that Joe Biden is shopping around is a lie. propaganda. I believe you posted his state of the union speech, or w/e one calls his speech from the other day.
The US is sending bombs to Israel to Bomb Gaza. If the US stopped sending bombs, Israel would run out of bombs within two weeks. At the same time the US is building a port in Gaza to provide relief to whoever is left alive there right now. What I am alluding to here is that the US has some very warped logic. It is a fact that the US does not want to negotiate a peace deal between Ukraine and Russia and will sink any other countries attempts at a peace deal. At the same time they are saying that Russia does not want peace, it wants to invade western europe. It is not in US interests to be at war with Russia.
I have tried to be as blunt as possible here. If you dont agree with anything I said please by all means you explain to me Russia's goals as you see them.
This video was posted before and may aid you in your response:
on a side note i saw this, which is relevant to the current narrative in the topic at hand.
