Can we agree on the facts?

 Would it be possible for everyone to at least agree that these are all facts?

- Russia invaded Ukraine on Feb 24th, this year.

- In 2014, an anti-Russia, pro-EU/NATO section of the Ukrainian populace overthrew their government, with fundamental help from neo-Nazi groups, and with the direct involvement of the US government. This led to a separatist movement in the east of the country where citizens identify more with Russia than with the west (many/most are ethnically Russian). They were fearful of the new, very nationalistic, Russophobic regime. 8 years of war ensued, with many war crimes and thousands of civilian casualties, mostly on the separatist side. The US provided arms to the Ukrainian government side. Russia provided arms to the separatist side.

- Peace deals were brokered but the Ukrainian government refused to implement them.

- NATO is an aggressive military alliance, having been involved in imperialist wars in Libya, Yugoslavia, Iraq, Afghanistan. And it was founded specifically to target Russia. It has expanded east, breaking a promise made to Russia 30 years ago. The Ukranian government was seeking membership and NATO leaders refused to rule it out.
