im saying that all imperialist powers are essentially the same and equally bad. including the us (the only country to date to have used nuclear weapons). if you want something closer to the point at hand see Iran Air Flight 655

> Russia was not provoked in any sense

as an imperialist power it was provoked in every sense. the US knew they were provoking russia. maybe they thought russia wouldnt go to war. but its obvious they were provoked

You can repeat nonsense as much as you want, but you have no explanation and no evidence, which makes it just wishful thinking, not reality.

No, evidence is everywhere. Your job not to see it is a different matter, bordering on obsession

Apparently it's everywhere except for the thing you actually control - your own comments.

To you envidence doesnt make sense and so you naturally call it nonsense. Kind of like a flat-earther. In the part of EU where I live a solid majority feel sorry for Ukranians because it is common knowledge that only idiots dont see that this is a war being faught for foreign interests. And no we are not pro Putin. But sometimes it is useful to see things how the other side sees things, at least as a sobering effect. We have no interest in further wars and strongly believe this can be resolved diplomatically. Unfortunatelly (ie not something that pleases us) the harsh reality is that Ukraine will have to make huge political sacrifices because it allowed itself to be dictated by interests of island countries

What evidence?

Ukraine wanted to bring Russia's number one security concern (NATO alliance and its eastward expansion) to Russia's doorstep, Russia reacted, and Ukraine is paying dearly for it. What else do you need?

This is your claim that this justifies an invasion, it is not evidence. Say something negative about Vladimir Putin.

> This is your claim that this justifies an invasion

'explains' is the word you are looking for, which is what you asked for

> it is not evidence

evidence of what?
