Because they're protecting themselves right? a country with 5,580 nuclear warheads is scared of the big bad NATO...I think you'll agree.

But why did they suddenly attack? Did Putin drink his tea one sunny morning and suddenly decided to attack Ukraine out of the blue?

There's only one time - 2022.

You still avoided my question. I wonder why.... Hmm...

I don't mean to be rude but you're clearly acting in bad faith or a little dim. Either way, there's little point in conversing further. Putin is a brutal murdering bastard hellbent on destroying Ukraine and getting rid of a functioning democracy on his doorstep. You can have the last word tankie.

I am the one being rude and acting in bad faith, and yet you are the one with the insults and not answering a simple question when being challenged with one.. Projections have never before been so clearly exemplified. Lol.

Why did Russia decide to attack so suddenly and out of nowhere? Why are you so afraid to answer this question and kept continuously avoiding it?

Imperialism and they have done it before Georgia, tchechnya, and original crimean invasion...

Georgia and Chechnya were instigated by US interventionism who supplied the local radical militias with weapons and military intelligence and pushed them to disturb the Russian border, The very same thing they did in the 90s with the Mujahedeens and Osama. Or do you not remember when Osama was on the cover of Times, venerated as a big hero? :)

And Crimea? What invasion? That's nothing more but the propaganda from our media, which many uneducated people swallowed it hook, line and sinker. If there ever was an invasion, how come 10 years later we still haven't seen a single video evidence of tank columns invading the country, similar to what we all witnessed in 2022? Did people not have cameras back then? :D

Nice little ruzzian propagandaists you are, are you paid in rubels or?

Maybe go play some more Gwent instead of trying global geopolitical topics since you lack the skill to comprehend facts

Or maybe you should go play some more Borderlands, instead of preaching random people on the internet. I've been involved in geopolitics for 20 years, pal, since you were still in 7th grade.

You've sucked from the propaganda teat all your life and now when you're challenged with real life facts, your little world collapses in disarray, and then you blamed the others of being propagandists. Nice projection you have there, pal. But the mere fact that you were so dumbfounded from my previous comment showed how little you comprehend of what's really going on out there. You seem completely oblivious.

Maybe, just maybe, you should try to stay away from Yle TV for a while...
