You are talking about the time Bush senior repelled the invasion of Kuwait by Saddam (which was a relatively short offensive which lasted a little over a month). I am talking about the Invasion of Iraq by the allied forces under the pretense of the existence of WMD.

The Paris Peace Accords were signed in 1973 and the last US soldiers withdrew from Vietnam in 1975, 16 years before the Gulf war.

It was in 2003 when the allied forced invaded Iraq, about three decades later than the Paris accords.
The Soviet withdrawal from Afghanistan was completed on February 15, 1989, so yeah, it has already been three decades since the Russian army has been part of a major offensive (which btw, they lost).
Just this morning I heard Putin is talking about Genocide in the Donbass region committed supposedly by Ukraine military forces, ahh, the smell of a lame excuse for war first thing in the morning.
