Lets not forget the Budapest Memorandum. Russia has loved meddling in its neighbors' activities and hated all of those who looked towards the West for economic advances.
Lets not forget he based this war on the idea that a person of Jewish heritage was a Nazi and Hitler supporter which I mean is one of the dumbest things I have ever heard.

A memorandum is a piece of paper that lacks the force of a treaty.
The Budapest Memorandum was not ratified by the U.S. Senate. It is a political agreement rather than a legally binding treaty, which means it did not require Senate ratification. The memorandum was designed to provide security assurances to Ukraine, Belarus, and Kazakhstan in exchange for their accession to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT) as non-nuclear states. The U.S. administrations involved did not seek Senate ratification because they believed the Senate would not approve a treaty with military commitments to Ukraine. Instead, the memorandum was adopted with more limited terms as a political commitment rather than a formal treaty[1][4][5].
