Russia's invasion of Ukraine was the unilateral issue here, everything else was a response to that. But either way I'd characterise this as a 'payment dispute' because the issue was how Russia wanted to be paid, not that Finland was barred from paying them at all.

There is nothing unilateral in two imperialist powers fighting. Just like there was nothing unilateral in WW1 or WW2.

Sure, the start of World War 2 was very multilateral: Poland wanted not to get invaded, Nazi Germany and the USSR both disagreed.
The parallels with the current situation are left up to the reader.

What about https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Munich_Agreement
Do you really think that WW2 happened over whether Poland would be invaded? I think you are confusing cause and effect.
Same as thinking that WWI happened due to the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand.
