I think there is some moral clarity in the Ukraine situation. There was simply no good reason to attack Ukraine. I understand that the Russians may be worried about the NATO expansion but that doesn’t justify to lead such a war.


There was also concern about ethnic and cultural genocide of ethnic Russians in the eastern Ukraine regions. Promises broken.


Russian history will view it that way and Western history will view it this way.


There is only one truth. Russia started a war of aggression to seize territory.


Western history will view it so. Russian history will view it as the opposite. Truth is irrelevant.


This is just a lie. They funded and armed separatists in this area which predictably led to armed conflict. When the conflict they started shed blood they had pretense to intervene. There was NEVER a genocide against ethnic Russians just a fight they started.


> They funded and armed separatists in this area

And sent Russian troops in to pose as separatists.
