It's not like Ukraine is the only reported case of it, too. Moldova and Georgia are ones that immediately come to mind because of their relative proximity, but Russia has been stirring up shit in Middle East and Africa just the same.
Stirring up is an understatement. They had boots on the ground (often in the form of the neo-Nazi group Wagner), planes in the sky dropping bombs, as well as the usual misinformation efforts based on fake news, fake personas built over months, covertly paying groups to go out and protest for a cause, and so on. Very successful in effecting political change, including the coup in Burkina Faso.
But NATO bombs on...
Just kidding. NATO could literally be run by South Park Satan; it's still no excuse.
They love saying that famine in ukraine was fake news but then it get awkward when famine in Kazakhstan is brought up.
They can't reconcile the two because official Russian talking points are only to be used against ukraine. Can't say the same thing about Kazakhstan because russia needs to pretend to be Kazakh friend.
