Russia's invasion of Ukraine was not the unprovoked attack the war-enthusiasts pretend it was.
All NATO had to do to avoid the Russia conflict was keep its promise to refrain from expanding NATO.
It started in 1990 when James Baker promised Gorbachev that NATO would not expand one inch further eastward if Russia agreed to the reunification of Germany, thereby officially ending WW II.

Gorbachev agreed, but within four years NATO began expanding eastward anyway.
The Russian invasion occurred when NATO began teasing NATO membership for Ukraine, whose name literally means "borderland" in Russian because it is on the border with Russia and has been the origin of numerous invasions of Russia in the past.
