Russia did not "invade Ukraine" to take it over but to stop the Banderite interference within Ukraine over all the Russian-speaking regions which in the constitution had some rights, removed by the incoming Nuland-endorsed régime . Russia refused for 8 years the requests to take Donesk and Lugansk into Russia, but wanted them to remain in a democratised Ukraine!!

But Russia, in addition to Ukraine, of course also has a legitimate interest in a neutral Eastern Europe through which it is not threatened by Nato.
