Can you explain then please how much sense did Russia had to start a war in Ukraine?
- SV_BubbleTime 4y agoThis is detail pretty well in an article I think I found here first. If Russia ever wanted to take Ukraine “back”, it had to do it now. It would only get harder and less likely as time goes on. Now, as to why of take Ukraine back at all, IDK, beautiful women, I assume. I’m not sure anyone can answer the why, really, but the why now seems to have reason.
- pessimizer 4y agoThis is not a good faith question. If you wanted to know the arguments that Russia made regarding the invasion of Ukraine, you would have googled them sometime within the past year. What you want is for somebody to type those reasons here so you can respond to them with invective.
- jasmer 4y agoPutin thought he could roll into Kyiv like the USSR did in Hungary and Czech, and like he did in Crimea. Bloodless coup. Massive show of strength no rational person would try to fight. The entire world thought Ukraine was going to collapse. Diplomats from big countries were telling Zelensky to his face that he had '24 hours' before Russia took Kyiv. The pipeline thing is a bit of a mystery.
