Why Putin Really Invaded Ukraine

It's a bit more complex than this

Liberal values ? Theres no such thing.

OH SO SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE IS N.A.T.O...OMG !

ukraine is the gateway into russia it really the only way to invade russia. so no way russia was going let ukraine falls into nato hand

Putin did not invade Ukraine. The Russian armed forces did.

The war there is Because of USA.. Period.

It’s so hypocritical to exclude Russia in the mid 2000s, when the US is at the head of NATO, and besides self determination we’re objectively the bad guys in global affairs. Like a disgusting corrupt cop, we planted evidence and completely destroyed Iraq based on lies. wHaT aBoUT dEmoCraCy. Really, why are absolute monarchies surrounding Iraq getting US aid and weapons deals? Is it democracy or allegiance we’re after?

Russia has the right to defend itself.

I find this video to be odd, as it doesn't actually explain why Russia invaded Ukraine, which is the title.

This seems VERY biased... and baked in half truths...

It was 2014, not 2016. It was the revolution before Russia invaded Crimea, annexed it and started the conflict in the Donbas.

Noithing sas in writing on any promises please......

this really doesnt address the issue

The end of NATO is rapidly approaching 😓😓😓.

No, NATO is absolutely to blame in this as well. You poked a bear, what do you think the bear is going to do? This falls on NATO as well.

I dared him to do it. Sorry everyone

And I think it's pure vanity, because they didn't reciprocate his gifts, they didn't even say "thank you" to him. And, that is without the consent of my family, he forgave them for the crimes committed, and gave them the property of my ancestors, i.e. home and land.

Short answer: because U.S. government push him to invade ukraine to test the russian army real strength. This the first stage of U.S. plan to ignite ww3.

thanks for this video, for the longest time people were just saying that Putin started this war cuz he is just crazy, but with a country as big as Russia, and all the people living there, if there wasn’t already a sentiment towards this kind of action, then Putin would’nt be in power, thanks for clearly explaining the facts, though still, innocent people dying is hideous and crazy

Cornell west believes was a broken promise and that why I'm not voting for him

Governments in general are already quite bad at leaving people to do what they want instead of forcing them to do things, now imagine a Marxist country. Yes, the USSR ended officially, but Putin and many others in power there nowadays are the same people from the old USSR and its organizations like the KGB.

Henry Kissinger, Z. Brezsinski, Soros...architects of the NWO, in their book it is written: After a win in 3. World war, the USA is allowed to take over all countries of the ex-soviet union.
NATO, USA and EU want Georgia, Ukraine and belarus, all former founder states of the soviet union. Military bases and western oil companies 300 km away from Stalingrad, on crimea and donbass. The energy supply from russia to europe is stopped, now america can sell their expensive expensive energy to europe, europe falls into recession because rising costs of production and living. Mission accomplished.

Let's not forget that Ukraine is notorious for sinister baby farming, biological chemical warfare labs, corruption, etc and etc.

The video is very unprofessional since you are not narrating history from a neutral perspective

You tell a good story but failed to mention the real reason Russia went into Ukraine to stop the killing of innocent Russian women and children living inside Ukraine , he asked the United nations to intervene but they done absolutely nothing as usual.

Some say Greece was the cradle of western civilization.

Well Ukraine was the cradle of Russian civilization.



......UK sided with the confederates.
The war would have long been over if the west either stated their involvement day one or didn't send bombs right when it was almost over.

Why is ukraine having pool parties and mostly not conscerned with the war. Because a good half wanted to leave the EU.

It is the EU and US money going to Ukraine is the only reason the people stayed out of Russia this long. Yet as EU and US kept adding strings only the heads of government profiting wanted to staty in power.



Truth the western population does not want to hear.

I don’t think Ukraine wanting to join Nato had anything to do with pushing on Russia and should not of raised tensions to the point that Putin felt they needed to strike, all leaders should try to hold peace for as long as possible and even wait to be struck, we already reached maximum destruction potential with nukes so there’s no need for countries to worry about being under armed if they let the other countries strive

Ukraine has not issued a formal declaration of war on Russia... why?

Unfortunately, this video is pseudo-neutral. I wished it was a bit more nuanced.

Wrong

The Metsamor Nuclear Power Plant in Armenia was chosen as the most dangerous reactor in the world due to its design in the 1960s. The nuclear reactor should have been shut down a long time ago. Because it spreads radiation to Europe and other continents. Radioactive and chemical wastes of the Nuclear Power Plant enter the Caspian Sea through rivers and then into the oceans through other rivers. The NPP is located in a seismic country and a strong earthquake can occur at any time. Armenia should be sanctioned and embargoed to close this reactor. This environmental terrorism must be stopped. The number of cancer patients in the world is increasing rapidly due to nuclear power plants. The government of Armenia, which is a military-economic ally of the invading Russia and receives financial and military support from it, should think about the health of the peoples of Europe

Putin invaded Ukraine because of natural resources, Blessed Be.

2014 not 2016

At finish Russia join ,to Nato for the goods or for the bads

What a bunch of baloney. It's the same argument as an abusive husband makes after murdering the wife, "Only if she hadn't provoked me!"

This guy is a west propagandist at its fullest. Talking about all the crimes Russia did. U.S holds the record that is so far to even come close to in regards to committing war crimes.

What's with the digs at George Bush? Seems completely irrelevant.

Genscher never said that. He was referring to the then still existing East German DDR, Nato would not let them join after the Sowjets left. Germany becoming one state again was not on the table during those talks.

Was going to happen sooner or later Nato keeps creeping into countries and should of kept their word.

Can you blame a country for wanting to join NATO and the EU? The economic prosperity and distribution of wealth in European countries far exceeds what is in Russia. To your point the encroachment does cause a dilemma but what is the other option? Join Russia and allow them to establish a puppet government in Ukraine? Since the war broke out Russia has uncovered its dark underlyings once again. They are imprisoning people who speak out against the regime, mobilizing tens of thousands of conscripts to fight against their will, terribly under supplying their troops on the front line, completely controlling media, killed thousands of innocent people. I understand and do believe that western countries are not innocent either but Ukrainians are the ones spilling their blood so their children aren’t subjects to Putin and his regime

Putin is attacking because THE UN WANT INVESTIGATE THE BIGGEST CRIME ON HUMANITY.....UKRAINE AND DEMOCRATS STARTED COVID THERE EVERYONE THINK THERE JUST GOING TO COME OUT AND SAY OH IT CAME FROM CHINA AND DO NOTHING....THERE ROBBING AMERICA FOR MILLIONS

He wanted to impress Jodie Foster.

NATO getting closer to Russia, Ukraine resources and geopolitical position and Putin’s goal of getting back all the territories of the former Russian Empire. All of this are the Russian reasons to invade Ukraine….the end goal make the same as Francisco Franco in Spain restore the Monarchy and their old glorious times.
