Oh they sure did, and all of them were of the militaristic and imperialistic variety.

How can Ukraine/the West possibly be responsible for Russia launching an imperialistic annexation war? Nothing can excuse that.

It’s a bit too complex to summarize, but if you study NATO’s actions in the region, you’ll see that we helped set up this precarious situation.

Again, as I said in my initial comment, most of the blame here is on Russia. Nonetheless, the world isn’t black and white.
