    However Russia has claimed it years before this conflict

    No, it claimed when conflict started. Just before February Putin didn’t go any further.

        This is correct. Statement that Crimea was annexed before conflict started is incorrect.

          Maybe I’m misunderstanding please correct me. Crimea was annexed by Russia in 2014 no? The current crisis started much later than that no? (Even though technically many consider them connected for obvious reasons.)

            The current crisis started much later than that no?

            No, crisis wasn’t ended, it was paused.
