Biden did not START the Ukraine war. Putin started the war when he saw that our wars in Iraq and Afghanistan had weakened world opinion toward us.
And HOW do you KNOW that 'this' is the REASON WHY "vladimir putin" did what 'it' did and is doing?
Putin is not an "it".
What is 'it', EXACTLY, then, if 'it' is NOT an 'it', as 'you' ALLEGE and CLAIM 'it' is NOT here?

Putin is a human being. Right?
"putin" is one name PLACED UPON and REFERS TO A 'human being'. And, OBVIOUSLY EACH and EVERY 'human being' can be described by the word 'it'. Just like absolutely EVERY 'thing' can be and IS an 'it'.

So when Putin saw that we in the West had grown weak, he decided to attack Ukraine at that point because it is a good "strategy" in military terms.
Did you NOT READ, or NOT UNDERSTAND, the ACTUAL QUESTION I posed, and ASKED you here?
I ASKED, 'HOW do you KNOW that 'this' IS the REASON WHY that human being did what 'it' did and IS DOING?

Is that not likely to be correct?
NOT FROM MY PERSPECTIVE. BUT, I am STILL WAITING FOR you TO CLARIFY HOW you KNOW that 'the reason' you PROVIDED IS the ACTUAL Truth here?
See, MAYBE you DO HAVE ACTUAL PROOF of WHY "vladimir putin" DID what 'it' DID. Like ALWAYS I AWAIT FOR ACTUAL PROOF.

Other than that I do not know what Putin's ultimate motivations were.
Okay, but the one that I have heard, so far, sounds FAR MORE REALISTIC than the one you have provided here.

But I do suspect that is why he attacked Ukraine when he did.
Okay, but WILL you ANSWER the QUESTION, 'HOW do you KNOW that 'this' IS WHY "vladimir putin" attacked "ukraine" when 'it' did?'
And, if you will NOT ANSWER this QUESTION, then WHY NOT?
