They may have a hard time proving that, given it was mostly just the US and the UK screaming an invasion was imminent and everyone else accusing the US of 'fearmongering'.

NATO advised to have important stuff evacuated and preparations were actually taken to move the mriya.

According to the SBU, the Mriya aircraft was in good technical condition on the eve of Russia's full-scale invasion, the Hostomel Airport had sufficient fuel for the flight, and the crew was ready for departure.

"However, the former General Director of Antonov State Enterprise did not issue the relevant order and ignored the reports and proposals of his subordinates," reads the report.
