It was a US orchestrated, planned and funded fascist coup.
They decided who would be in the (fascist) government, proven by the Nuland-Pyatt call.
Then those nazi scum terrorised the east and south for 8 years.
On the orders of UK US they broke the Minsk agreements, also proven and were going for a final push to ethnicly cleanse those who didn't want to live under their regime.
But then 'Russia started it' LOL

The US started it.
Just like it did with Venezuela (failed so far), Myanmar (failed), Hong Kong (failed), Belarus (failed), Kazachstan (failed), Georgia (failed), Afghanistan (ruined and failed), Pakistan (to a lesser extend) and Syria (ruined but success).
Not to mention the "Arab Spring" (success), so Lybia among a host of MENA nations as well.

If the US hadn't been involved with its subservient media, but some other country, like Russia, being involved then there would be questions like:

"How are these interim presidents like Ahmed al-Sharaa being selected?"
"So all of these interim presidents are all living in Russia and move from Russia into these countries as presidents?"
"And these people are recieving peace prizes in Russia/Belarus/North Korea?"
"So most of these people in Finland that's in civil war right now don't know at all who this interim president is, was never on the ballot, lived most of his life in Russia, but it's okay, because this is an interim president, selected 'internationally'?"

And headlines like:

"Russia installs another Puppet President into Finland under the pretense of democracy and soveirignity."
"Russia calls to implement another slave shield zone above the nation of Greece, dubbed 'no-fly zone' in Russian language"

The only thing Ukraine stands out of the list is that Zelensky actually had been elected by the people and started out as an internal project for an oligarch, unlike CIA puppets Ahmed al-Sharaa, Hamid Karzai, Juan Guaidó, Reza Pahlavi, Fethullah Gülen, Aung San Suu Kyi, Joshua Wong, Ursula von der Leyen and others.
Zelensky however was about as thruthful in his campaign being an anti-war president as Trump has been and so his pro-Russian voters got completely betrayed, because he decided that he wanted to join the EU at all cost, thinking that this would turn his country into an economic miracle following the same economic trend as neighbouring Poland, repeating history with truisms as the economic landscape of the world has changed dramatically between the days Poland started to recieve EU subsidies and US investments and when Zelensky became president, with Russia in a much better position where it was back then and so Ukrainian people with growing economic ties to Russia only further entrenched themselves towards support for Russia.

Russia invaded Ukraine because it violated the Minsk 3 agreements time and time again and because of mistrust of the European Union–Ukraine Association Agreement that included military cooperation with NATO countries, which aroused suspicions of Ukraine trying to join NATO, an anti-Russia organisation, with Ukraine being an artificially created nation by the Soviet Union that contains mostly parts of Russia and Poland.
The US supporting Ukrainian nazis thing was just the most emotionally infuriating part, but not the most worrying as suppression of the Russian people in the Donbass was, who tried to vote themselves out of the country, but were violently suppressed.

The invasion was a warning to Ukraine that if it did not sign the agreement that it would refrain itself from joining NATO,
it could expect a devestating war, which it now does.

If anyone has footage of this by the way, please direct me to it.
I did not save the footage of people going to polling stations and being shot at by Ukrainian troops.
The footage I saw had loud sweeping music/commentary added to it,
which did a giant disservice in my opinion to spread the atrocity that happened that day.

That's right history starts on February 2022, nothing happened before then. 🤡

The US did start it, by constantly poking with threats and actions here and there. Like in 2014 when they overthrew the actual democratically elected Ukraine government for the crime of being "Too friendly with Russia" and then propped up the current Nazi regime that is completely russo-phobic.

They even went so far as to rename a city because it had a "Russian spelling".
