    Read my comment above. TL;DR: Ukraine was massing troops for an attack on the Donbass in 2022, Georgia was the aggressor in 2008, and Crimea never wanted to be part of Ukraine - it could only have remained in Ukraine after 2014 if Kiev forces invaded it and brutally put down the anti-Maidan uprising like they did Odessa, Kharkov, Mariupol, Slavyansk, Kramatorsk, and like they tried doing to Donetsk and Lugansk.
