All the "western media" that give a quick 5+ minutes overview about the conflict also talk about Russias objections of NATO expansion and the history of Ukraine. But also how the people of Ukraine fought to get closer to the EU. I can't see how that makes it gray all the way through. There are nuances that we can't ignore, but it seems the people of Ukraine don't want to be under Russian control. Seems clear to me the attack was not .. gray.
