    They could have invaded in 2013 edit: 2014 before the western military buildup. It would have takes a few weeks tops. Much less agression involved.

      They wanted to avoid aggression entirely, which is why they didn't invade. They negotiated the Minsk agreements in 2014 and 2015, then sat by letting Ukraine break those agreements for 8 years before doing something about it.

      i.e. they tried the diplomatic way, and when that failed they still waited years before doing anything.

        Yes thats my point. The russian lib goverment made the situation worse by inaction. They should have acted a lot faster and more descisevly. That has been the only way to deal with facists.

      Ukraine had a pro-Russian president in 2013. This all started with the western backed coup in 2014.
