That is precisely what caused the war:
-The Ukraine thought that it was not a threat to
-Russia by joining NATO (and later hosting NATO WMD aimed at Russia)
-Russia thought that the Ukraine joining NATO was a security threat to Russia.
Hence the war.
The treatment of Russian speaking Ukrainians in Donbas was a secondary matter, IMO.
But of course once the war began the spin/propaganda started on both sides.
Just imagine if PNG joined the SCO with the intention of hosting Chinese WMDs
aimed at Aus population centres, what would our Pollies & armed forces do?
IMO they would be in PNG executing a regime change....pronto .
