Oh, yes, that's also why I mentioned it being technically true, as in, Russia is very interested in helping anything that destabilises and hurts their enemies in mutual imperialist struggle, as well as help them establish the new world order of imperialist powers acting however they want in their spheres of influence, instead of international responsibilities and laws.

It's like: Technically the October Revolution in Tsarist Russia was also, because the German Empire really, really wanted a destabilised enemy on their Eastern Front (Thus sending Lenin with a generous packet of financial support to do some destabilising). That does not negate that at the core, it was already burning as a potential historic outcome, because of the squalor class relations had caused there - and the geopolitics were just additional fuel that got the tensions into explosion mode.
