Russia (and members of china's media) have come out and said they don't want a NATO member on their backdoor... meaning Ukraine. China media made a statement yesterday around 3am EST stating they are United with Russia bc they share 4k km of border with them, and they hope Ukraine learns from this to never become a NATO member...plus Putin feels Russia got a shoddy deal when Ukraine was taken from them and he wants it back. He feels the only way to give Russia security is to rebuild the old Soviet Republic. Or so it has been said....
Peacekeeping forces to demilitarize the area where ethnic Russians have had their language outlawed and endured a "creeping military offensive" that has shelled and opened fire on small villages for eight years since those regions declared autonomy from Ukraine, killing and maiming hundreds. The NATO membership was the red line, as hypersonic nukes that can reach Moscow in five minutes is untenable to them.
real, im not even sure what the current narrative is or reasonings for the invasion.
