The criminal events from 1999 have opened doors to the lawless world, where stronger can easily achieve any of their objectives without seeking an approval from anyone Max. The precedent set back then has been haunting the international law and order ever since, with numerous examples of the principle of sovereignty being violated. Only a ‘head in the sand ‘ type of a person cannot see that.
I am not justifying the destruction of Ukraine. I am simply pointing out at what Russia used as a justification for their military operation in Ukraine. They used a very dangerous precedent in the international system of law and order set by the criminal organization - NATO. The link between then and today is very clear.
