The Russians invaded Ukraine. They are not the good guys. It is probably true that we wouldn’t care if the Russians were serving our interests but often times we do the right thing for wrong or self serving reasons, but it is easier to justify to the public when the cause is also just.

As for the fact that neo nazi groups are fighting with the Ukrainians, this is just the standard compromise people have to do when fighting a more dangerous evil, same as when we used the Soviets as allies and then became enemies when the alliance had served its purpose.

You may want to check out the timeline on that part. The Nazis there were part of the government long before Russia invaded.
