Or since the Ukraine War

The Russian war on Ukraine is the term you were looking for.

Better, the proxy war that is actually between USA-Russia.

We don't call the Korean war the China and USSR-USA war either.

I don't think this is the argument you think it is...

Bullshit.

American weapons, American ISR, American planning, American funding... US politicians talk about a "good investment" and "to the last Ukrainian". I don't understand how you could NOT call it a US-proxy war.

Yeah. A proxy war doesn't mean that Ukraine doesn't deserve to be free.

We care about Ukraine and its people, the US care about money and power.

As a Russian I'd rather call it the Putin's war.

What would you call the other wars then?

- Against Georgia (2008)

- against Ichkeria, twice (1994, 1999)

- against Afghanistan (Dec 24, 1979 – Feb 15, 1989)

Just to name a few. ‘As a Russian, I’d rather avoid any responsibility for the actions of my government and play a victim card, telling everyone I didn’t vote for it, so it’s everyone else’s problem.’ Yeah, sounds very Russian to me. Very Russian indeed.

I do wonder if this is the name that history will stick with. Ukrainian War or even Russo-Ukrainian War (the name for the broader conflict starting in 2014) is shorter.

Russo-Ukrainian war jives better with other historical conflicts.
