What exactly did Ukraine do to lead Russia to war with Ukraine?

The Russian-Ukrainian War has begun, and Russian troops have fully entered Kiev, the capital of Ukraine.

Because the Ukrainian side did not let the residents flee in time, there are still many ordinary people in Kiev who are still in the city, and the people are the most innocent in the war.

So do you know why Russia is going to war with Ukraine?

In 1949, the 12 founding members formally established NATO, a military organization with a large number of nuclear weapons and troops.

With the collapse of the Soviet Union, NATO membership quickly grew to 30, and they continued to expand eastward, making Russia in the east feel unlimited pressure.

So far, only Belarus and Ukraine to the west of Russia have not joined NATO.

In 2004, pro-Western forces in Ukraine came to power and forcibly promoted de-Russification measures. And slowly terminated cooperation with Russia, which made the pro-Russian Eastern Ukraine very dissatisfied.

In addition, Ukraine is also eye-catching with NATO and has the intention of joining NATO.

If Ukraine joins NATO, it means that NATO can deploy troops in Ukraine.

It's like pulling at the door of Russia, and this Russia can't swallow no matter what.

In February 2014, the pro-Russian Ukrainian president was ousted and the opposition came to power to form an interim government.

A month later, Crimea, which had long been unhappy, took advantage of the chaos to hold a Referendum on Leaving the European Union and joined the Russian Federation.

Another pro-Russian Donbass followed suit, declaring independence after the riots.

The Ukrainian government did not launch a massive military counterattack until after the presidential election in May. Ukraine wants to preserve sovereignty and territorial integrity, while Russia wants the Kiev authorities to grant greater autonomy to eastern Ukraine.

Due to Ukraine's special geographical location, which is directly related to the security of Russia's southwest and whether Russia can control the Black Sea, Russia has not given up its control over Ukraine.

In addition, Russia considers Ukrainians to be Russians.

It was only the Mongol invasion in the 13th century that put the two brothers on different paths, and today Russia is strong, so it is natural to guide the little brother back on track and be a good Russian.

To this day, many Russians hold the notion that Ukraine has been Russia's inherent territory since ancient times.

To sum up, Ukraine's accession to NATO is the fuse for the war to start, and we hope that the war there will end as soon as possible and return the people to an era of peace.
