But as I recall, 1990 agreements with Gorbachev and Russia were tied to aid packages and agreements for economic and political reforms which Russia abrogated in the mid-1990's (as part of Putin's rise in power).

Not this particular one. I will say, though, there was no formal agreement to back up Putin's claims, but the lack of one is there because of the status of the nations at the time of the treaty reunifying Germany.
The area is just a mess.
