Ukraine was just sitting there, minding it's own business trying to genocide Russians and inviting hostile American bases and nuclear weapons inside when out of the blue Russia attacked them!

They understand that China pushing out western capital in Africa is threat. They also understand that the USSR was threathening the evil empire by stationin nukes in Cuba, although they are militantly uncurious about what made the USSR and Cuba make that decision.
