What Russia really wants in Ukraine !?
In the last centuries, Russia really had a hard time defending it’s western flank as it was proved in the Napoleonic Wars and in The Second World War. Stretching From The Netherlands in the west all the way to Ural Mountains in the east The North European plain is the reason for Russia inability to defend the invasions coming from Europe.
In order to defend itself, Russia always wanted to control territory as close as possible to the narrowest point of this plain which is located in northern Germany. During the Cold War Russia managed to reach this narrow point by his proxies from the Warsaw Pact and completely secured his western flank.
But When The Soviet Union collapsed, it left in its place 15 new independent states. Every former proxy state joined NATO together with the three Baltic states, which left Belarus the only ally of Russia in the region.
If Ukraine would join NATO, Russia would not be able to stand any chance against a NATO invasion across the entire border. To prevent this, Russia decided to act first and to attack Crimea and then the rest of Ukraine in order to shift it’s defense line as far as possible from Moscow.

"a NATO invasion" "Russia decided to act first"

[arandomuser]

In short, what does Russia really want from Ukraine:

The answer: Ukraine

By that logic every nation, every country that Rusia has invaded or tried to colonize and assimilate, has right to invade Russia itself, because of, well, geopolitical security concerns, to push the threat further away from their homeland or capital.

[TacitusKilgore]

And ironically, by invading Ukraine the chances of it joining NATO or even the EU are far more increased

[creative]

Idk to me it looks like Russia is protected by its nukes, and this is stronger type of protection than geography

[politonno]

Why the heck would NATO invade Russia? That will never happen

[AndrewPlayz-qndn]

Finland should also be blue in this video

[renny]

You forgot about one very important thing:
NUCLEAR WEAPON

[JmMateo]

*Being friendly with their western neighbours*
Russia: naaah

[mr-nrdq]

Kaliningrad: Im not enemy guys, i swear(sneaky deploys 27596258 nuclear rockets)

[TheCholopolo]

When this war ends I can imagine Ukraine given automatic entrance into the EU amd or NATO

[dreinertson]

I think for a minute about what “move your defensive line as far as possible away from Moscow” implies.

[wawa_cube]

The warmer water ports and more usable land

[Eraeraeric]

So they think wasting their entire countries resources and man power to take a bit of ground is gonna make them feel "safer" from invasion 😂

[thejp]

Putin should get an award as NATO salesman of the year.

[saxtonhalegaming]

Russia: "We need to secure our border to protect ourselves from invasion."

NATO: "Why would we invade a massive, cold, wasteland for resources that we would much rather get through trade?"

[tearl]

I could see Putin getting his knickers in a twist about this if NATO was even remotely interested in invading Russia. NATO was created as a defense against Russian aggression against other countries, not as a aggressor with dreams of territorial expansion, like Russia has.

[Doyoulikemynewhat]

Russia: Ukraine!
Ukraine: what?
Russia:You scared me! Now take this

[chichi]

Ludicrous, NATO would never invade Russia.

[Suregrip]

Well, russia sold Alaska to the United States
