@Buffalox I would argue that you can and should label it a war. A significant part of Ukraine had been illegally occupied (Krym), another part was invaded and partially occupied (Donbas, which is two regions), military confrontation with advanced weapons systems was a fact.
This is what is referred to when saying we are entering the 5th year.
Yes there were problems before that, that could also be labelled war, but there's a huge difference between before the 24.02.2022 and after. With a thousand casualties every day for 4 years.
I'm not saying you are wrong, but you are kind of changing the subject.
