I actually read some reddit posts talking about it a little while ago. The reasons I remember:

  • Putin wants more distance between Munich and the western powers
  • Ukraine has a lot of farmland and Russia could use the food production
  • Russia annexed Crimea a while back, being one of the few warm-water ports Russia has. Control of Ukraine would give them easier access to it.
  • Putin is a dictator, but he still needs to maintain some level of popularity. Winning a war and gaining land makes you popular.
  • Ukraine used to belong to Russia and some people think it still should.

Putin regrets the Soviet Union collapsing. He would like to rebuild it. That means taking all the lost lands. This includes Ukraine

that seems to be the excuse for Russia's entire military history

maybe their ancestors shouldn't have settled in a place that sucked.
