In 1204, the Fourth Crusade, when the Catholic Christians of the Western countries conquered the Orthodox city of Constantinople and looted it, they dug up the graves of the old Byzantine kings, including the grave of Heraclius. They also removed the crown from his head. This was the same Heraclius whom the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) had invited to Islam in the form of a letter. He honored the blessed letter but did not accept Islam for fear of losing the throne. The Crusaders considered King Heraclius to be the first Crusader. In the opinion of Catholic Christians, any Christian who has participated in the war against Muslims is a Crusader.
In addition, these looters also dug up the grave of the great Byzantine emperor Justinian and were surprised that even after 639 years, his body was still fresh. They considered it a miracle, but despite this, they did not stop looting. They looted the treasures, diamonds, and jewels that had been collected for centuries and took them to the West. Constantinople could never recover after that. And the Byzantine Empire began its rapid journey towards its decline and end.
Russia is the largest Orthodox Christian country in the world today, which is challenging the West. Although Russia is currently fighting for its survival, it does not want America and NATO to surround it from all sides. For this, at the right time, it showed its Mussle on Ukraine while showing aggression.
