It’s madness how they’ve been able to condition the West that we can just keep attacking Russia militarily with no consequences.
I mean, by that logic isn't it madness for Russia to assume they can attack a western ally with no consequences?
Ukraine wasn’t an “ally” until the invasion made them a useful pawn to bleed Russia.
I think it depends what we mean by "ally". One could make a quite convincing argument that Ukraine became a Western "ally" as a result of the Euromaidan coup in 2013.
Deepthroat that nazi boot
therewhere two reasons, the first and was that NATO kept saber rattleing about the Ukraine joining, however it was admitted now that that was never a serious plan, and ontop of that, and importantly they where not. NATO was also desined to be a threat to the USSR and now Russia, as can be seen that both the USSR and Russia has tried multiple times to join NATO and being declined entry.
The second and more important was the contenuing genocide the Ukrainian government was carying out in dunbas and the violation of the Minsk Accords.
