It's not ahistorical, it's historical to say that Russia has always been an expansionist empire since Ivan the terrible. Lenin spent his time trying to keep the conquered territories turned republics like Ukraine from leaving. Then they did lose them and are trying to take them back by force

The most recent time Germany invaded and colonized another country was 1945, whereas the most recent time Russia invaded and colonized another country is today, October 17, 2026. Might there be a reason one country has chosen to invade its neighbor today, while the other has not?
