What year did we decide that no further changes to borders would be allowed?

1945-6 probably.

This is why the Russian belligerent attack on Ukraine started with a lot of staged "we want to secede and join Russia" votes. The UN hates a war but can be fooled into supporting the will "of a people" to secede.

And then that didn't work. And so Russia needed to activate plan-b as planned.
