A hostile Ukraine, or a conquered Ukraine, only bring more enemies on Russia's borders.
> nato,

What missiles? There's already Poland, Baltics, Turkey, Romania that can be used for missile bases.
> warm water access
That's the bullshitiest one of the bullshit list - first, Russia already controls Sevastopol, and before the occupation of Crimea, it had a joint lease on it. And of course, it has hundreds of kilometres of Black Sea coastline to the east of Crimea, including the sizable port and naval base of Novorosiisk.
Russia is providing enough fake excuses ( Ukraine isn't a real nation, Nazis) as it is, no need to add even faker ones for them.
