Similar question to be asked in regards Kherson when that city fell in March to Russian forces. It does seem that either Russian or pro-Russian forces had infiltrated key parts of Ukraines government and infrastructure which shouldn’t have been surprising really. No doubt we and other Western powers (as well as Ukraine) have agents in Russia.
Infiltrated? Not really, they simply do not recognise the post-Majdan Kiev regime. You know, the one that had been bombing the East of the country for the last 8 years with our silence

It’s also obvious that positioning Russian rocket launchers around the Zaporizhzhya plant could intimidate the Ukrainians enough to keep from hitting those. Lovely move, Vladimir.

“Ukraine has 15 nuclear reactors,”
Ukraine is reportedly the poorest country in Europe. How did they manage to build 15 nuclear reactors?
Edit: further reading informs me that they’re Russian built.

I was unaware of the deal for Ukraine to provide the EU with energy, potentially costing Russia millions in lost gas revenue. Preventing this sounds like a much more likely reason for Putins invasion than anything to do with NATO in my eyes

Yes, there is very little reason to take this war at face value.
