The whole issue is basically because of two factors.

1. After WWII Ukraine made a verbal agreement not to join NATO/EU, but now it wants to, meaning they want to break the verbal agreement, which of course the other party (Russia) does not like.

2. USA placing rockets next to the Russian border in Poland, which would probably also be done in Ukraine, if it joins NATO/EU.

I would say that if USA removed itself and their forces from EU, all of this war/invasion stuff probably wouldn't be happening.

I don't want war or anything similar to it, I'm more on the side of legalise weed so that everyone can just chill the f down.

BUT I would probably be pretty angry and panic if my neighbor would start placing rockets on the border.

I'm not saying that what Russia is doing is right or that I agree with them, but objectivity looking, their actions are reasonable, it makes sense.

Regarding what will happen or what would happen. In an ideal world NATO and UN would react as soon as a war broke out and hopefully stoping the war as soon as possible.

I hope that in the future there will come a day where military will exist only for events and parades.

EDIT: Sofixa corrected me, it's not Belarus but Poland! Not sure how this slipped my mind, but yeah...
