Yes Russia is in a proxy war with NATO.
Russia is at war with the Nazi regime and Nazi elements in Ukraine not the Ukrainian people (the people of the donbass republics also have Ukrainian roots).
NATO further escalating the conflict increases the risk of a direct confrontation (I.e Russia can engage them directly in their own domain/territories).
During WW2, before the Japanese attack on pearl harbor, the Americans were reluctant to escalate the conflict (this tied the hands of America's decision makers). After the attack on pearl harbor, Americans were begging for war, the American political leadearship got the political support it needed and they invaded Japan.
It's important that Russia apprises it's citizenry of NATO's escalations and provocations in order to continue to win thier support.

Russia sent troops into Ukraine on February 24, 2022, citing Kiev’s failure to implement the Minsk agreements, designed to give Donetsk and Lugansk special status within the Ukrainian state. The protocols, brokered by Germany and France, were first signed in 2014. Former Ukrainian president Pyotr Poroshenko has since admitted that Kiev’s main goal was to use the ceasefire to buy time and “create powerful armed forces.”

Former German Chancellor Angela Merkel confession an interview with the newspaper Die Zeit caused a stir.
“The 2014 Minsk agreements were an attempt to give Ukraine time,” she admitted. “And it used that time to become stronger, as you can see today. Ukraine of 2014/2015 is not the Ukraine of today.”

Hollande(France's former president) also acknowledged that the international agreements for which France served as a guarantor were little more than a ploy to buy time for the Ukrainian regime to increase its military capabilities with NATO weapons and training.
The Minsk Peace Accords were never about bringing peace to Donbass, former French President Francois Hollande admitted.
“Since 2014, Ukraine has strengthened its military posture. Indeed, the Ukrainian army [of 2022] was completely different from that of 2014. It was better trained and equipped. It is the merit of the Minsk Agreements to have given the Ukrainian Army this opportunity,” Hollande said in an interview with Ukrainian media.





Shortly before the hostilities broke out, the Kremlin recognized the donbass republics as independent states and demanded that Ukraine officially declare itself a neutral country that will never join any Western military bloc. Last September, Donetsk and Lugansk, as well as Kherson and Zaporozhye Regions, were incorporated into Russia following referendums.

Russia's SMO has been progressing with relatively admirable progress.

More than 70% of the Donbass republics has been fully liberated and Ukraine continues to lose ground.

Although, the Nazi regime in Ukraine had previously argued that it wasn't going to recognize the right to self determination of the people of the now liberated Donbass republics and it bragged of 'reclaiming' these territories, reality has dealt them a heavy blow and the regime and it's collaborators has been unsuccessful.

Russia's goal in this conflict has been attained and it's no small feat.


Upon the full expulsion of Nazi elements within the Donbass republics, Russia will have to cope with insurgency sponsored by the Ukrainian Nazi regime and supported by the West.
It'll be clear to the world that the West/Ukraine are anti peace, they would be held accountable for their attempts at causing more poverty and global instability.
Russia will have justification to make sure Ukrainian military facilites do not remain in service, thus, demilitarizing Ukraine. The demilitarization will diminish the capacity and capability of the Nazis to carry out terror attacks (Denazification).
