You make it sound like it's a bad thing, being the subject of weekly nuclear threats and invasion threats like the EU is is a valid reason on its own to support Ukraine.

>being the subject of weekly ... invasion threats like the EU is

It is?

Yes, Russian politicians like to voice ideas like that or just nuking EU cities. not sure if those are a weekly occurence, but its happened a couple of times this year, from officials mind you, so I wouldn't be surprised if state-run media or even just cranks that Putin likes to run for-out ideas through have weekly "Russians! We need to overrun the decadent EU" articles run...

A citation would be appropriate. Include the context too, like "If the EU sends troops in the Ukraine..."

Yes it is, it happens almost every week.

I see nothing about invasion there.

> Russia would pursue them in "all possible international and national courts ... and in some cases, extrajudicially,"

It's a textbook terrorist threat.

And? Where is invasion?

And what? What else would "extrajudicially" means appart from sending thugs or drones to kill people in the EU like they did already

"invasion, noun

an occasion when an army or country uses force to enter and take control of another country" [0]
