Tacit admission of the Lebensraum playbook and aligning with Nazi strategy; the Grand Chessboard was more explicit, not to mention installation of Nazis in leadership roles in the early days of NATO (now they hide behind false rhetoric of promoting democracy). Of course there's a multitude more examples from Gladio to Azov and this is just another one to add to that fascist pile.

I wouldn't say the invasion of Russia is an expansion of Lebensraum. It's just a desperate attempt to weaken Russia, not the attempt to permanently expand Ukraines borders.

Wouldn't the exapansionist policies here be from the US and its European proxies against both Ukraine and Russia? Land and resources at the cost of slavic lives? A check against political economies not beholden to western dictats?

Except that the Ukrainian nationalist project explicitly and openly says that it wants to do just that in the long term. In their delusional fantasies Russia's defeat by this NATO proxy army is just the first step on the road to "greater Ukraine".
