Basically what the other poster said, if that clears it up. And the reason I said it’s a little more complicated than “victim” and “offender” is because it’s not like Russia is a bastion of socialism motivated by a need to cleanse the world of fascists. They are anti-imperialist in practice because of their positioning in opposition to the western empire, but are also under the yoke of a post-soviet capitalist system, and their opposition to Ukraine being a NATO outpost doesn’t need to be anything more than self-defense against imperial encroachment.

It’s also more complicated from the fact that Ukraine is both a kind of “offender” at the behest of western imperialism and their most reactionary elements, and also a victim of that same imperialism taking control of it to use it as a proxy against Russia and conscripting its people into a meat grinder. The west is the one who has facilitated the creation of this situation and sabotaged peace deals along the way.
