Even if taken at face value, these assertions of his have nothing to do with "aggression" against Russia. And even if they do constitute "aggression," they do not demonstrate that NATO in Ukraine advances that "aggression." Even if "aggression" is postulated that somehow relates to NATO in Ukraine, there is no justification for Russia to invade.
Reality remains as it was, Russia is a serial aggressor nation that has committed war crimes and continues to do so.
Russians would no doubt point to the US and agree that our policy in the Middle East has been a 30-year-long war crime.
Try as it might, the American Propagandaministerium can't shrug off Russian concerns about our push eastward into Russia's backyard.
