    Zelensky was voted for many reasons, this is surely a component of it! His charismatic effect and desire for sovereign governance are others.

      Yeah but the protection of the Russian minority was a key mandate.

      You want to talk about historical context yet fail to contextualize anything shown to you. Your "spurring debate" is actually just bad propaganda

        Exactly! Ukraine's goals aim to unify a diverse population! Majority and minority alike. It's a beautiful resistance movement towards outside Russian aggression negatively impacting the lives of the Russian minority in Eastern Ukraine!

            To my knowledge it was a direct policy decision from Putin. It'd be nice to have a free and fair election to see some positive change towards this poor decision making.

                Similar to the reasons Moldova, Georgia, and the Kuril Islands were occupied. Russian expansionism.

                    NATO only expands with mutual agreement between the parties involved. If a sovereign country feels the need to join NATO, just follow their reasoning to learn about the historical context.
