"The sphere of influence was interfered with in after the coup in 2014, and Russia said no."
Total lies, fabrications and fictional invented Kremlin narratives. Exactly par for the course for you.
There was no coup.
Russia has no right to determine Ukraine's future.
If Russia wants a sphere of influence ,then it needs to present a system that countries are willing to be a part of. Invading, murdering and deporting the local population is not a "sphere of influence" Lucky, that is imperialism.
