    Again, i am not disputing Russian agression against Ukraine.

    I am talking about the Russia aggression being the result of Western violations of Russian security interests, which woukd have played out the same way if roles were reversed.

    In that sense Ukraine is also used by the West to fight with Russia for them, which is why most of the world perceives the war as a proxy war between Russia and NATO.

    This doesnt justify Russias actions in the legal or moral sense, but it is cynical to ignore that this war is also the result of our provocations and violations towards Russia.

    This brings us back to the starting point. Western arrogance and ignorance keeps bringing escalations all over the world.
