“We believe the prerequisite for meaningful diplomacy and real peace is a stronger Ukraine, capable of deterring and defending against any future aggression,” Blinken said in a speech in Finland, which recently became NATO’s newest member and shares a long border with Russia.

… where is all the evidence you speak of that that Russia invading Ukraine is somehow justified?…

Did you even read what I wrote?:

Nobody here has explicitly said what Russia did wasn’t illegal or immoral, because it is.

Apparently not.

Take a mental journey and imagine yourself in the same position of the victims of war, then how wrong it is to somehow try to justify any of it.

I have. Have you? Did Putin not make peaceful overtures to Ukraine? Did he not want to come to a mutually beneficial arrangement? Did Ukraine not 'agree' to the Minsk Accords?
