Just so that we're clear, calling the West as "the police" as you do with your analogy just reinforces Russia's claim that we now live in a unipolar world, of which the US is the policeman (hence Russia's desire to split it all into a multi-polar world, no police chasing bad guys without international due-process there).
Nothing in the world justifies a Russian invasion of Ukraine, because this isn't the 18th fucking century.
Stop trying to justify the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
Plus, you furthered his point by calling the western atrocious as “conflicts”.
It's ridiculous to me we went all in on sanctions pretending they would bend over and keep doing business with us, but only on things we want them to, after we deny them machinery, computers, software, cars and steal/freeze their assets.
Your analogy doesn't work, we aren't police and they are not shooting, they quit doing business and decided they are okay without our money.
Russia is the bad guy for both the war and their reaction to the sanctions. Your comment is like saying "don't get mad at a criminal for shooting at the police chasing him".
