      Not the same thing. Russia is a brutal invader, Ukraine is defending it’s sovereignty

          And what plans were there for Ukraine to join NATO prior to the invasion? None? Zero? The deal was already that Ukraine was a neutral buffer zone so the big strong USSR wouldn’t wet their underwear? Did ruzzia show their hand that no country is safe from an invasion regardless of if their in NATO or not? Yes I think they did! They did show they are warmongering dictators.

          Maybe it’s worth thinking about why Russia’s neighbours are so desperately eager to band together in mutual defense against them.

          Glancing at a history book might help.
