Putin has been invading his neighbours since 2008 and finally launched a full scale war.

How would you say that is “roping in Russia”?

Some people think so, looking at the raw geopolitics instead of the news fodder - e.g. in 2015:

"So, the primordial interest of the United States over which for centuries we have fought wars, the first, second and cold war has been the relationship between Germany and Russia. Because united they are the only force that could threaten us, and to make sure that that doesn’t happen."
