There is sort of a Window between 2014 and 2022.

• MAIDAN DEMONSTRATION - 2014 Starting December 2013.

In the year 2014 there was the "Maidan Demonstration" at theMaidan Square (Independence Square)at the city of Kyiv, Ukraine, which erupts into Riots.

The Demonstrations occupied the Parliament Hall in Kyiv, where they demanded for the resignation of the Pro - Russian Ukrainian President.

• U.S. and EU IMPOSED SANCTIONS

United States and EU did not recognize such Referendum Results and imposed asset freeze and travel bans against numerous of Russian Officials and members of the Crimean Parlaiment who promoted the Referendum. 

Accordingly, there was a Big Differences of perception between Russian and the USA, Western European Countries relating to the Crimea issue.  

• NATO BUKHAREST SUMMIT APRIL 3RD, 2008

It goes back to NATO BUKHAREST SUMMIT APRIL 3RD, 2008– NATO's Final Declaration inviting Georgia and Ukraine to join NATO members

• NEUTRAL ZONE

Putin was struggling for Ukraine to be a Neutral Zone, since Ukraine is close to the Potential Natural Gas Deposit Well owned by Russia within the Russian Territory.

• NATURAL GAS PIPELINE TRANSMISSION

 By History Russia was supplying its Natural Gas from its Potential Natural Gas Well to German and the West European and East European Countries Via the Nord Stream 1 Pipeline.  

                             NORD STREAM 1 was completed and run-in operation since 2011 - 2012 

• Germany depends on 40% of its Natural Gas from Russia.

• Other Western European Countries were also relying on 40% of its Natural Gas from Russia, except Holland, which has its own Natural Gas Resources in Groningen.

NORD STREAM 2  

NORD STREAM 2 Pipeline NaturalGas was constructed, Company finance 50% - 51%, by a Joint Venture Company consisting ofGazprom(State Oil Gas Company) - Majority 51% and the remaining are owned by Western Oil Gas Private Company, Shell(Joint Venture Holland and British Joint Venture,Enim(French Private Oil Gas Company),Uniper - Wintershall(Germany Oil Gas Private Company,OMV(Austrian Private Oil Gas Company).

• NATO SUMMIT BUKHAREST April 3rd, year 2008 

Putin emphasizedthat the NATO Expansion from West Europe towards the East Europe,particularly Ukraine, who was invited to be a member of NATO, in the NATO'sSUMMIT BUKHAREST HUNGARY, April 3, 2008, thrua:

NATO's FINAL Declaration : 

was a "Real Direct Threat" to its National Security Interest, since Ukraine is in the Border line of the Russian Potential Natural Gas Well owned by Russia located within the Territory of Russia. 

• WASHINGTON ELITE POLITICS REJECTED NORD STREAM 2 Project

The Washington Elite Politics rejects and object the Construction NORD STREAM 2 Project from the very start, from the Era of Obama, Trump until Joe Biden Administration. 

U.S. imposed sanctions to the Construction Companies building such NORD STREAM 2 below   the Baltic Sea. 

• REAL CONTRADICTORY AND DILEMMA

Each and every Countries, where the Big Oil Gas Private Oil Gas Companies abovementioned, being member of the Joint Venture Company, with GazProm (Russia State Oil Company) as the Majority Shareholders,

are members of

NATO and EU, for which we are all facing a Real Contradictory and Dilemma situation, where High Tension of Geopolitics elements, among the Big Nations are highly involved.

Based on the information we get from Daniel Michaels in the Wall Street Journal dated April 13, 2022., it shows that:

 even though "De Jure" Ukraine is not NATO Member, however "De Jure" NATO (and its Allies led by USA), assist 10,000 Ukrainian Troops Annually for 8 Years since 2014.    

 HEGEMONY IN THE FOSSIL FUEL ENERGY

The above Washington Elite Politics Rejection & Imposing Sanctions on the Construction of Nord Stream 2 as described above, strongly indicates that :

the Washington's Elit Politics are considering Russian Potential Natural Gas, which supplies Natural Gas to Western Europe and Eastern Europe are threatening USA Hegemony in the Fossil Fuel Energy in the Western Hemisphere of Western Europe and Eastern Europe.  

 CONCLUSION:

Both the USA and Russia are engaged   in Highly Escalated Cold War: 

where USA wanted to avoid Russia being the winner in being the Major Supplier of the Natural Gas to Western Europe and Eastern Europe. 

Whereas on the other side, Russia is claiming and struggling that Ukraine to be a Neutral Zone, since the: 

• NATO Summit 2008,
• the "Maidan Square Revolution" in the year 2014 which overthrew Pro-Russian, Ukrainian President, and
• NATO's (and its Allies led by USA) Ukrainian Training at least 10,000 Troops, annually, for more than 8 years since 2014, as illustrated by: Daniel Michaels in the Wall Street Journal dated April 13, 2022.
