Bullshit. They state quite clearly that they want to annex part or even whole of Ukraine.
Sure what you say may have played the role also. But Putin wants "glory days" of SU back. That's why he continuously tried to expand Russia (and Russian influence) since he came into power.
It's about him being a power broker on international scale and not another has been dictator of 3rd world country.
Nato was just used as an excuse. Because of the submarines and ballistic missiles, It doesn't matters where weapons are.
And nothing excuses them for what we are seeing what is happening on the ground.
