You have no idea what whataboutism is. You said Russia doesn't respect agreements. The evidence is that the agreements you're talking about were either violated by the West or were adopted by the West in bad faith explicitly to undermine Russian security.

You can't really be so naive as to think that Russia should continue to appease the West after 60 years of the US and Western Europe materially supporting Nazis and fascists, building over 600 military bases in 80 countries encircling Russia and China, claiming to only engage in defensive war when invading and razing dozens of countries, assassinating people all over the world, engaging in illegal collective punishment regimes all over the world, and constantly withdrawing unilaterally from security treaties designed to maintain MAD, human rights, and international security.

You gotta stop reading US and UK news rags when they talk about their opponents. They lie.
