The countries listed are not at war with Russia, with the exception of Ukraine, but they were members of the old USSR. It is believed by many that Putin has or had a desire to re-establish that old USSR. Did that mean war with the countries of the old USSR? Perhaps with many, but not all.

Want more? There is plenty out there. Of course that does not mean war with every former member of the old Soviet Union, but war has begun with Ukraine, a fundamental member of that former union.
Who cares what a News agency says. And in reality who cares if Putin himself said it. The point is there have been no wars, he has not attacked or done anything to any western country or any other country just because he wants their oil, or does not like their leader. Unlike the west which does that regularly.
So what if he wants to re-establish the old block. What if the countries want it as well? What if they just talk about it and agree to it? Who business is it?
In reality if you look at documentaries about several of the old block countries that are now independent, they really are not. They get massive funding from Russia, get dams built, highways built, treatment plants and so on. In all honesty, may of them never left, just renamed themselves from a region of USSR to a country.
My whole response to your original post is that you hate him and Russia a lot. But they have done nothing to you or the world to make you hate them so. Sad to say, but when people act like this, it creates division and therefore wars, usually over misconceptions, lies and deceit, or just propaganda. As a soldier serving in a few wars, I can tell you that is the wrong think.
I worked with many American soldiers and tell you I have many friends and fond memories of them. I truly respect and have the utmost honor, dignity and they were some of the most humanity centric people I've met. But....the US govt -not the people- are the biggest perpetrators of violence in the world. And whats worse, is that their violence is with no evidence or provocation whatsoever.
Who blew up the pipeline off the coast of Poland? Hmmm, biden talked about it, 2 weeks later it was done. Who cares about the damage done to the environment right? Who cares about the people of Eu who relied on that line right? It was a threat carried out at the whim of the US, who have no horse in that race! Technically an act of war.
Here in EU we have seen evidence of biolabs in Ukraine creating biological wmds funded by the US, that the Russians found. The Russians presented it to the EU and the UN, had inspectors come in, but nothing has come of it. Why not? Imagine if it was the other way around! OMG there would be worldwide upheaval! Bad Russians, evil Russians...Then basically unlimited evidence of Nazi-ism in Ukraine. No one can deny it. Anything said by Nato, UN, anyone? Nope.
Putin farts...bad evil man and country!
Ukraine biolabs, bio wmds, Nazis, good! Seriously how brainwashed do people have to be to think this way?
As for North Korea and possibly China assisting Russia...so what? Eng, Can, US, Ger, Fra and a whole host sent Ukraine tanks, planes, bombs, money. Oh thats ok but bad man can't have friends!!
