And once again I'm not supporting Russians in invading Ukraine. However, it's very important to acknowledge that the west is responsible for similar and far worse kinds of invasions. Yet, those never get the same coverage as Ukraine. Perhaps people in the west need to first learn how to hold their own governments accountable for the atrocities they commit.

this has to be a joke post, no one in the West has covered the last 8 years of war, as a matter of fact people in the West did not even think about Ukraine until Putin started threatening nuclear war, they don't care about Ukraine or Russia they just care about their countries becoming wastelands and have been as a result randomly informed that there is an invasion going on. The whole nothing else has been getting coverage like Ukraine is a bad take because it is factually incorrect.

Plus they are trying to prolong a pointless war that Ukraine can't win and where with every second it passes there's a bigger threat of nuclear annihilation.

NATO is willing to fight Russia until the last Ukrainian.

NATO caused the problem, but right now they're not directly involved in the conflict. Ukrainians are the ones bravely fighting the Kadyrovites and the other Russian hired armies.
