except they don't really. Since the Russian-Ukrainian war had started, Finland had joined nato. Doesn't seem like Russia gives a fuck.

On every parley Russia demands of Ukraine to surrender its eastern territories. What this has to do with nato bases? If it was as simple as you suggest, peace would've been already negotiated.

I think saying that Russia engaged in war because they wanted to defend themselves is at least partially wrong, as at least one of the actual reasons seems to be the resources that where discovered in eastern Ukraine in the 2000s.
