I'll be honest, besides knowing that war is bad and Putin/Russia basically just pissed off most of the world, I don't really know any more about this war. I was never good at understanding the politics and whenever I try to read up on it, I get this entire backstory that, tbh, is a bit overwhelming to read. Although these kind of situations are complicated, I just don't think I know enough about the situation to be able to add any value in a serious discussion. The most I can do is just share some video clips or news articles.
At the risk of sounding dumb and asking this now at 10 pages deep, why is Putin even evading Ukraine? What's his justification in his perspective? I read he's accusing Ukraine of being Nazi-like or something like that. I don't see how attacking Ukraine resolves this.
