There is no such thing as a guarantee in this world. Whatever they do, there is always danger Russia will attack again. The most they can do is to make this decision as hard as possible and the consequences for Russia as heavy as possible. But you can't ensure anything.
- verdverm 3y agoUSSR/Russia has never attacked NATO, winning the peace by definition means that the prospects for war are very low from many decades if not forever, not zero probability. Ukraine can win the peace without fully removing Russia from current borders. It is up to them to decide what they are willing to trade for that peace, because reclaiming all the land by force will not win the peace, Russia will be even more humiliated and bellicose. --- Consider Vietnam, the US lost the war but won the peace. Vietnam is very pro US Korea is a cease-fire, but largely there again, the peace was won Iraq & Afghanistan, not so much --- I'm particularly fond of listening to Stephen Kotkin on these matters, we is one of the best minds thinking about them, and he has this incredible way of conveying and getting to the core of the matters, past all the superficial talking points. He's truly an artist in this regard https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=stephen+kotkin https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=stephen+kotkin
